Historic touring through Aragón, Spain

The weather was so good today that I spent the morning touring and taking some photos around home.

Small town of Longares, with its characteristic tower:



Approaching Cariñena. If you like strong red wine, very probably you have tasted some from here. The gadget at the left of my NCX is a press from grapes:



Approaching Fuendetodos, where the great painter was born:

Francisco Goya - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia





Warm welcome at the entrance of the town. How could resist?



Small and humble house where the painter was born:



Commemorative plaque on the wall of the house:



Monument at the other side of the house:

Old town of Belchite. Was bombed and abandoned in our -so badly called- Civil War





Always is someone visiting the ruines:

Great pictures, I'd love to tour around Spain someday, there is so much history there.

No guys, it is not Oregon, it's Aragón (Spain):







We know very well the real value of a single drop of water

Finally, getting ready for a tour to the globe:

Great pictures and info details of the various places, thanks!
