LITERATURE
“Quiero dormir un rato,un rato, un minuto, un siglo;
pero que todos sepan que no he muerto;que hay un establo de oro en mis labios;
que soy el pequeño amigo del viento Oeste;que soy la sombra inmensa de mis lágrimas” (Federico
García Lorca)
“La falsedad tiene alas y vuela, y la verdad sigue arrastrándose, de
modo que cuando las personas se dan cuenta del engaño ya es demasiado tarde” (Miguel de
Cervantes)
“La vida es una serie de colisiones con el futuro; no es una suma de lo
que hemos sido, sino de lo que anhelamos ser.” (José Ortega y
Gasset)
“Lo sabe todo, absolutamente todo.
Figúrense lo tonto que será” (Miguel de Unamuno)
MONUMENTS
The Alhambra in Granada is considered by many as one of the 10 wonders of the world. Its appeal lies
both in its interior, as its decoration is among the summits of Andalusian art,
as well as in their localization and adaptation, creating a new landscape but fully integrated with the existing
nature
Barcelona's Sagrada Familia is an unfinished temple of the great architect Antonio Gaudí. The work began in 1883 and the architect worked on
it until his death in 1926
The Aqueduct of Segovia is an impressive piece of Roman engineering. Its construction
dates back to the first and second centuries. Until almost the present day it has been providing water to the city of Segovia through a path
of more than 15 km, and more specifically, to its Alcázar.
The Monastery of El Escorial is one of the most unique Renaissance
architecture in Spain and Europe. It was devised in the late sixteenth century by King Felipe III, who conceived a large multifunctional complex that originated the Herrera style. It was considered, from the late sixteenth century, the
Eighth Wonder of the World, both in size and functional complexity and its huge
symbolic value.
