EDITORS COMMENTS
The Hanging Houses (Casas Colgadas), dating back to the 15th century, stand proudly in the walled town of Cuenca, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Castilla la Mancha, Spain. This print by Mauricio Abreu captures the essence of this iconic landmark at dusk. As the sun sets over this medieval city, the illuminated houses come alive with vibrant colors, creating a breathtaking sight against the backdrop of an old town. The hanging houses are perched precariously on cliffs overlooking the Huécar River, adding to their allure and historical significance. Steeped in tradition and history, these architectural marvels showcase the rich heritage of Spain's Iberian Peninsula. They serve as a testament to centuries-old craftsmanship and provide a glimpse into life during that era. Visiting Cuenca is like stepping back in time. Its picturesque scenery and scenic viewpoints make it an ideal travel destination for those seeking a taste of Southern Europe's charm. The combination of traditional Spanish culture and stunning architecture makes it no wonder why Cuenca has earned its place as one of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. This print beautifully encapsulates all that makes Cuenca special - from its colorful facades to its enchanting atmosphere under twilight skies. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernity, there are still places where history comes alive.
