A little beyond what you see, Iberia.

Sometimes a square, sometimes a façade, sometimes a short story… Here I gather the things that catch my eye while travelling in Portugal and Spain.

A tour group in Praça do Comércio in Lisbon, in front of the yellow Lisboa letters and the Rua Augusta Arch.
A tour group on a terrace above Granada, with the Alhambra and the Sierra Nevada behind them.
A tour group on Montjuïc in Barcelona, with the Venetian towers and the avenue behind them.
A tour group gathered at the foot of the cathedral steps in Girona.
A tour group in front of the carved stone portal of Valencia Cathedral.
A tour group standing under a stone ceremonial gate near Córdoba.

  2. The Giralda rising above Seville Cathedral, framed by a yellow façade and green foliage under a blue sky.
