Toledo is of ancient origin and it was mentioned by the Roman historian Livy as urbs Parva sed loco munita (a small city but fortified by location). The city was conquered by the Roman general Marcus Fulvius Nobilior in 193 BCE, and it became an important Roman colony and the capital of Carpentia. Toledo is known for its traditional crafts, including damascene metalwork, antique-inspired swords, and handmade marzipan (sweet almond candies). However, the most famous artworks found in Toledo are the masterpieces by El Greco displayed throughout the city’s churches and convents, as well as at El Greco Museum. Some top sights in Toledo include; Toledo Museum of Art, Toledo Zoo, Maumee Bay State Park, Hollywood Casino Toledo, Imagination Station, National Museum of the Great Lakes, and several others.
