Monday Morning Photo - Plaza Mayor, Salamanca

One of the most beautiful squares in Spain the Plaza Mayor, a baroque style plaza, on the north side is the City Hall building. Decorated with stonework medallions between each arch, including depictions of  Carlos I, Alfonso XI, Fernando VI, Cervantes and Santa Teresa. The buildings are three storeys, supported by semicircular arches topped by a balustrade.  Plaza Mayor, Salamanca See my One Day in Salamanca - What Not to Miss post on Luxury Spain Travel.

Monday Morning Photo - Despeñaperros Natural Park

El Parque Natural de Despeñaperros is one of Andalucia's smallest Natural Parks. Erosion caused by the River Despeñaperros  created this natural pass from the region of Andalucia into that of Castilla-La Mancha. 

Rugged and stunning with steep canyons, reams of wildlife from mountain goats to wild boar and various species of Eagles and vultures, plant life, cave paintings and the stunning La Cimbarra waterfall make it a great area to visit.
