Madrid highlights

23:52 Unknown 0 Comments

We have spent only one day in Madrid, but it was very impressive. The streets were full of people drinking, eating, shopping or just speaking all over. My favorite part was the Gran Via with great architectural highlights from the 20th century such as the famous Metropolitan building. The eclectic Palacio de Comunicaciones was also on the best of list. At the end of the post you will find 2 pictures: fist was taken at the Spanisch French border, the other in Paris, which I made on the way back Germany from Portugal.

Azulejos

Something very important was missing of my pictures uptil now: the so called Azulejos, the amazing Portuguese ceramic tilework. In this post I collected the most beautiful ones, that I saw in Portugal everywhere on the streets or in castles. The other interesing art of decoration is the colorful painting around the windows, which was also really insiping and I managed to collect them.
