| The Ponferrada Castle, along the Camino De Santiago in Spain. |
What
a nice dramatic shot of the castle wall.. Has it been stormed in its
history; looks like it might have, but that goes for most castles (I
gather). I have to hop the pond over to Europe.
Thanks,
Eric. The castles in Spain had gone through many battles over the
centuries, this one included. Much of this one had been restored at
various times. I certainly was excited when I first saw the Ponferrada
Castle. I hope you can go to Europe and see some castles for yourself.

I got the same feeling when I saw the American west for the first
time... 14k foot mountains in the Rockies, red rock all around the
Colorado Plateau including Arches & Zion in Utah, Big Sur in CA,
etc. Now I have to expand my reach to see structures over 236 years old
(1776) not including Native American structures aka Mesa Verde etc.
Always wanted to see Spain... Barcelona in particular- anywhere old and
scenic.
I've
been through the western USA a few times and you're right, it's very
majestic. I was briefly in Barcelona last year but didn't spend
nearly enough time. It was exciting when I visited Europe for the first
time since I was from Vancouver, Canada where there are not
many structures remaining from the 19th century.
