20 Photos Of The Ancient Village Of Aceredo, The “Atlantis Of Galicia”

Spain

The village of Aceredo was submerged in 1992 when the Alto Lindoso Dam closed its floodgates. Thirty years later, the extreme drought has lowered the water levels, leaving the ruins of this ancient settlement uncovered! When the “Atlantis of Galicia” emerges from the Lima River, it’s possible to stroll through its muddy streets and admire dozens of houses. Lately, Aceredo has become a real tourist attraction among the Portuguese and Spanish, who also call it the “ghost” or “abandoned” village!

How To Visit Park Güell This Year

Spain / ,

Park Güell (in Catalan, Parc Güell) is an urban park designed by Antoni Gaudí in Barcelona. Besides, it’s one of 7 works by the architect distinguished as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The idea for the creation of Park Güell came from Eusebi Güell, who wanted to build a luxury condominium inspired by the English concept of “garden cities”. The initial project had 60 houses, streets, squares, and viaducts. However, the urbanization proved to be a failure and was converted into a public park!

The Basilica of the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona is Antoni Gaudí‘s ultimate incomplete masterpiece. The Catalan architect dedicated more than forty years of his life to this project, which eventually became known as the “Cathedral of the Poor”. This is because the initial funding came exclusively from scarce private donations. The Sagrada Familia is still under construction and it’s estimated that the works will be finished in 2026, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the master’s death!
