馃 Regreso a la Aljafer铆a // Back to the Aljafer铆a by palomap3@palomap3

The Aljafer铆a Palace is like a miniature Alhambra of Granada, something I repeat like a parrot when I talk about it. You find lobed arches, plasterwork and brick decorations everywhere. Like any self-respecting place of recreation, its builders tried to ensure that every corner was imbued with beauty.

It is astonishing that with almost a millennium behind it and having been put to a variety of uses, including as a barracks for siege troops, we still see such well-preserved original decorations. Curiously, it was precisely this military use that preserved some of them. Sometimes what appears to be detrimental has the opposite effect.

馃 Glasshouse at the Lalbagh Botanical Garden, Bangalore by coffeenlove@coffeenlove

The guide stopped the vehicle at the final stop, the iconic Glass House. As we stepped out, the structure stood tall and elegant, its arched frames glinting under the soft sunlight. What immediately caught my attention was the shared net draped all around its boundary, an unusual sight for such a historic greenhouse.

At first, it seemed out of place, but then it made perfect sense, perhaps a necessary shield to protect the delicate blooms from the harsh waves of heat, preserving the vibrant arrangements inside with care. Little did I know, this final stop was just the beginning of a journey filled with colors and stories woven through petals and leaves.

馃 La Plata Cathedral: A church from another world / Catedral de La Plata: Una iglesia de otro mundo by mamaemigrante@mamaemigrante

There are buildings that just by seeing them make us think about how human beings were able to create such monuments. There are even theories that seek explanations in the presence of aliens to achieve them, as is the case with the pyramids of Egypt.

That feeling was what I felt when I visited the cathedral of the city of La Plata in Buenos Aires, a huge building that stands out from afar, and it seems that you traveled without a passport from Argentina to Barcelona, because of the similarity of the architecture of that Spanish city.
