La Plaza de España

The buildings in the Plaza de España were constructed for the 1929 international fiar, where the Spanish-speaking countries came together for a mutual admiration fiesta. The intricate tiel work depicts historic scenes & maps for every province in Spain, arranged alphabetically fromn Alava to Zaragoza.

After visiting Itálica, some friends & I walked to the Plaza. Assuming I'd be seeing a fountain & an intersection of streets, I was completely taken aback when we passed through the doors of a seemingly-plain edifice into the grand plaza.

Photos here.

Nos vemos, Le <3.

Hey, you do great photography. You must have had a wonderful teacher. I will have to meet him sometime.
