menories


This is a picture od Las Casas Colgades - the hanging houses of Cuenca.
I have visited this walled city in central Spain many times and took this
photograph standing on the bridge of San Pablo - my husband was
unable to stand on the bridge which straddles the deep gorge of the rivers
Jucar and Huecar being overcome with terror. My memories of Cuenca
in the Province of Castile - La Mancha was stirred yesterday reading of
it's status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is a beautiful ancient city
divided into two parts by the gorge - the old city and the new of course.
Millions of pictures have been taken from the bridge of San Pablo of
what is left of the hanging houses which is now a restaurant and a Museum
of Abstract Arts.
