About Valladolid:

From the 13th century until its eventual decay in the early 17th century, Valladolid was a royal city and an intellectual center attracting saints and philosophers. Isabella and Ferdinand were married here, Philip II was born here, and Columbus died here on May 19, 1506. Valladolid is bitterly cold in winter, sweltering in summer. Today, after years of decline, the city is reviving economically and producing, among other things, flour, ironware, and cars. Consequently, it's polluted and noisy, and many of the older buildings have been replaced by more modern, utilitarian ones, although the center offers a host of fascinating buildings especially the magnificent cathedral.  The major monuments can be covered on foot, although you may want to take a taxi to the two most distant points recommended: the Museo Nacional de Escultura and the Museo Oriental.
