EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the breathtaking beauty and rich history of Palma, the capital city of the Balearic Island of Mallorca, Spain. On the left, the stunning Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma, or Sa Seu, dominates the scene. Construction of this Gothic architectural masterpiece began in 1299, with its most iconic feature, the large bell tower, added in the 14th century. The cathedral's intricate stone carvings and soaring spires reflect the island's unique blend of Catalan, Gothic, and Romanesque influences. Adjacent to the cathedral, the majestic Almudaina Palace comes into view. Built in 1309, this royal residence was initially used as a fortress to protect the city from invaders. Over the centuries, it has served as a royal palace, a military garrison, and even a prison. The palace's impressive stone walls, towers, and courtyards bear testament to its storied past. The harmonious coexistence of these architectural gems, nestled in the heart of Palma, is a testament to the city's enduring charm and its rich cultural heritage. This photograph, taken in 2013, invites us to explore the captivating history and allure of Palma and Mallorca.
