Segovia, Spain

Typical small plaza in this area.  I loved the textures on all of the buildings.  In fact, I found myself taking up close shots of the patterns and textures.

Segovia

Segovia is famous for its magnificent Roman Aqueduct (as seen on the left).  I still don’t understand how they built these structures with no mortar.  I love the buildings and forgot about the angles and mazes of the streets in the old parts of each city in Spain.  These photos take me back to my foreign study experience in college.   I lived in Caceres, Spain for six months.

I am a sucker for windows…and seriously, the textures.

I love these tile rooftops.
