    Casa Batllo

    28 Julai 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 77 °F

    We went to Casa Batllo, a UNESCO world heritage site, which is thought of as Gaudí's best works. It was originally a house made for the upper-class Batllo family and was designed in such a way that light reaches every corner of the building. Now, it serves as a museum-like structure describing its history, as well as Gaudí's.Baca lagi

    Ikono

    29 Julai 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F

    We went to Ikono, an interactive experience, and took lots of pictures. It's mainly a place to take influencer-like pictures with amazing backdrops. It was super fun and Arri loved it!

    El Retiro Park

    29 Julai 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 88 °F

    We went to El Retiro Park and walked around for a while. We saw the lake and the Crystal Palace, which was under renovation. We also saw a little duck pond with a small duck house, and there were a bunch of baby ducklings cuddled up against the wall.Baca lagi

    Templo de Debod

    30 Julai 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 90 °F

    We went to Templo de Debod, an Egyptian temple in Madrid. This is an authentic Egyptian temple that Egypt gifted Spain in 1968. The walls are covered in images depicting kings interacting with the gods, and the smaller replica shows an aerial view of the entire structure.Baca lagi

    Hop-On-Hop-Off Bus Tour

    30 Julai 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 93 °F

    We spent the day doing a Hop-On-Hop-Off Bus Tour around the city, and this is an assortment of pictures I took either while on the bus or when we hopped off at different stops. There were 2 circuits the tour offered, a historical route and a modern one, and we rode both.Baca lagi

    Madrid Walking Tour

    31 Julai 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 84 °F

    For our last day in Madrid, we did a walking tour. It was full of history and recommendations for restaurants from a local. Madrid was founded by Muslim Arabs in 850, and during that time, the city had an Arabic influence in its architecture. However, in the 1400s, a Catholic monarchy took power and began persecuting Jews and Muslims. This was the start of the Spanish Inquisition. To distance themselves from the Arabs, the ruling family refurbished the entire city into a more European-style area, destroying most of the Arabic influences. The first 2 pictures show one of the few buildings that still remain in that style, and the 3rd picture shows what was once a mosque, turned into a Christian Church, and the interesting contrasts between the 2 styles. We also saw Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol, two very important squares in Madrid. The remaining pictures are simply places I found appealing and pretty.Baca lagi

    Real Palacio

    31 Julai 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 90 °F

    We visited Spain's Royal Palace, which has been partly turned into a museum as the royals no longer wanted such a large place to live. We toured about 30 rooms, but we're only allowed to take pictures in the entrance halls, I believe because the Palace is still used today for diplomatic relations and important ceremonies.Baca lagi

    Royal Cathedral

    31 Julai 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 93 °F

    Directly next to the Royal Palace is the Royal Cathedral. It's a massive structure built fairly recently, sometime in the 90s. Besides its gorgeous facade, the interior was breathtaking, with a large, raised tabernacle against one wall.Baca lagi

    Valencia

    1 Ogos 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 90 °F

    I didn't take very many pictures today, but these are the ones I did take. Today was our first day in Valencia, and the first few pictures are just a pretty street. The last two are of the full moon we saw while on the beach.Baca lagi

    Plaça de la Verge

    2 Ogos 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F

    We started with going to the Plaza of the Virgen to see the fountain, Valencia Cathedral, and Basílica de la Mare de Déu dels Desemparats. The Basílica took almost 200 years to build, so the painted ceiling has a blend of multiple different artistic eras all in one.Baca lagi

    La Estrecha y La Longa de la Sela

    2 Ogos 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 91 °F

    We visited La Estrecha, the narrowest building in Europe and second in the world. We actually walked past it 3 times before we finally saw it because of how narrow it is, and the color blends with the surrounding building. We also visited the Silk Exchange building, where there was a bustling silk trade for many decades. Many important matters happened in this building and served as a diplomatic center during its prime.Baca lagi

    San Nicolás de Bari y San Pedro Mártir

    2 Ogos 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 91 °F

    Saint Nicholas Church is a modest, Gothic style building on the outside but holds a gorgeous, Baroque era masterpiece within. With the change of artistic eras came this unlikely mashup. This church began construction in the Gothic period, but its interior wasn't started until the Baroque time. The extravagance of the statues and altar are typical during this time frame.Baca lagi

    Ciutat de les Arts i les Ciéncies

    3 Ogos 2023, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 88 °F

    Today, we went to the City of Arts and Sciences, which is a portion of Valencia that has become the modern area. We went to the Museo de las Ciencias or the Science Museum, which had a lot of interactive exhibits to explore. There were also some animals like incubators with chicken eggs and baby chicks hatching!🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣
    We spent a couple of hours there and then went over to Hemiferíc, an IMAX theater to see "Flying Monsters," a short movie about dinosaurs that could fly and how the pterodactyl family became avian reptiles. I won't lie, I fell asleep almost immediately, not because it was boring, but because it was the perfect environment for a nap lol.

    We finished off the day at the beach, which was nice and relaxing, because clouds were covering the sun and there was a breeze. Then the wind picked up, the waves got rougher, and the tide decided to come up and say hi. Arri got pulled into a riptide, and some man helped her, but as she was coming back to land, she was just being pummeled by waves. Then the tide surprised us all and came 30 ft up to soak all of our belongings, including my phone and our portable charger. Needless to say, we left right after that.
