January 23, 2023
Raixa

White clouds against a deep blue sky are reflected in the clear green water of the pond. What almost looks like a swimming pool is part of a sophisticated irrigation system.

Today, the magic place is open to the public. Whether you…

Jardí del Bisbe

The old rectangular cistern is covered with lush bougainvillea, goldfish play hide and seek between water lilies. Two girls leaning against the edge are taking a selfie while an elderly couple is resting on a shady bench. Jardí del Bisbe is a…
