Montjuïc, Barcelona

Montjuïc is a hill in Barcelona. On the top of this "medieval mountain" you can see an amazing views over Barcelona City, like the harbour, Tibidabo, Sagrada Familia, and all little flats. This site was selected to hoste the 1929 International Exposition and nowadays the surviving buldings from this effort include Spanish Village, the Olympic Staduim, National Palace (National Art Museum of Catalonia / MNAC), Miles van der Rohe's German National Pavilion and Magic Fountain.




Lleida/Lérida, Catalonia, Spain


Recently I visited Lleida (Lérida) one of the oldest towns in Catalonia, with recorded settlements dating back to the Bronze Age perdiod. I took photos of castles and the view offered from the top of the watchtowers. 





The Barcelona Skyline

Dear Barcelona, when I wake up in the morning and see your skyline - Tibidabo, the height of the Agbar Tower, the shiny sides of Hotel W, the three fireplaces from the industry, Montjuic walls, mountain and beach - I know I'm home. I feel a certain energy walking between your streets, but recognize that makes you special to me is that my roots are here. 













In any city with lots of skyscrapes, lots of skyline, the moon seems bigger than it is. It's called the moon illusion. Neil deGrasse Tyson

Eiffel Tower


When I traveled in Paris it was a dark and rainy day. But I found this well-known tower located on the Champ de Mars, Paris. It is the tallest structure in Paris and the most-visited paid monument in the world. French people are very lucky to have it in their land.
