Belém Tower was constructed in the 16th century. It is an UNESCO World Heritage Site because of the significant role it played in the Portuguese maritime discoveries of the era of the Age of Discoveries

Ésta es la Puerta de Alcalá, de Madrid. A finales del siglo XVIII, Madrid seguía pareciendo un pueblo, rodeado de murallas medievales. En el año 1774, el rey Carlos III encargó a Francesco Sabatini construir una puerta monumental en la muralla, reemplazando a una puerta más antigua y pequeña. Se inauguró en 1778
This is Alcalá Gate. Madrid in the late 18th century, still remained a somewhat drab villa in appearance, surrounded by medieval walls. Around the year 1774, king Charles III commissioned Francesco Sabatini to construct a monumental gate in the city wall replacing an older, smaller, gate which stood nearby. It was inaugurated in 1778.

Ohhh que bonito, me encantan todas las fotos, la primera es muy bonita. En la 5 foto no se porque da una sensación como si el fondo estuviera amañado… no se… a mi me lo parece jaja. La del barco vikingo me encanta, preciosa esa foto y la de los elefantes de hiedra es muy graciosa. Besicos ^_^
ResponderEliminar@Bea: no hay ninguna foto trucada, lo que pasa es que la cámara es tan buena que puede enfocar el primer plano y el fondo a la vez (es un regalito que le hice a mi maridín para su cumple el año pasado, jeje). Besicos
