The Rusted Memory of the City / #monomad challenge / [ING/ESP]
The photos 馃摳 are my entry to the #monomad contest from @monochromes and
@brumest.
Greetings hivers.
Relics of the past survive in a harsh present, like symbols of something that was once immense for many and today only whispers its former greatness. Havana preserves the most diverse and bizarre things one can encounter. A war tank frozen in time, cars from the 1950s still breathing the streets, fragments of Spanish architecture with centuries of history holding on through memory alone.
Here everything coexists. The glorious and the broken, the epic and the everyday. On every corner there is a remnant, a trace, a story that refuses to fully disappear. Today I want to share with you a small fraction of that scattered universe that reveals itself while walking. I hope you like it.

Reliquias del pasado sobreviven en un presente 谩spero, como s铆mbolos de algo que fue inmenso para muchos y hoy apenas murmura su antigua grandeza. La Habana guarda lo m谩s diverso y lo m谩s bizarro que pueda encontrarse. Un tanque de guerra detenido en el tiempo, autos de los a帽os 50 que a煤n respiran calle, fragmentos de arquitectura espa帽ola con siglos de historia sosteni茅ndose a pura memoria.
Aqu铆 todo convive. Lo glorioso y lo roto, lo 茅pico y lo cotidiano. En cada esquina hay un resto, una huella, una historia que no termina de irse. Hoy quiero compartir con ustedes una peque帽a fracci贸n de ese universo disperso que se deja ver al caminar. Ojal谩 les guste.
