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 - Above the Clouds on Sierra Sur´s Highest Mountain

Driving up the highest point of the Sierra Sur mountain range in Jaen province to see the sunset, we hit cloud. Thinking that was it, no views tonight, the swirling mist lifted and we were on top of the sea of clouds with rocky peaks surfacing here and there. A bright reddy-orange sunset on one side and this surreal pastel coloured view on the other. The peak of the Sierra de la Pandera is 1,872m above sea level.
