UNA MIRADA AL RETIRO
La Casita del Pescador es uno de los caprichos que el rey Fernando VII promovió en el Reservado del Parque del Retiro o zona que delimitó del uso público, para su uso personal y el de su familia. Las obras se iniciaron en 1817. La casa fue emplazada sobre la isla central de un estanque donde se podía pescar.

El puente de Alcántara
es un puente romano en arco construido entre los años 103 y 104, que cruza el río Tajo en la localidad española de Alcántara, en la provincia de Cáceres. España. Es un puente que conjuga técnica depurada con estética y funcionalidad, uno de los más claros exponentes de lo que fue la ingeniería civil romana impregnada de carácter propagandístico.
Sus altos pilares provistos de contrafuertes que realzan su verticalidad y sus arcos propician la buscada monumentalidad y se consideraron arquetipo de otras obras, como el cercano pero más modesto puente de Segura. En su arco central se alude al emperador en cuyo período se levantó, Trajano, y a los municipios de la zona que contribuyeron al proyecto. Dañado y reconstruido en varias ocasiones desde la Edad Media hasta el siglo XIX, el puente ha sido descrito por cronistas, viajeros y estudiosos que lo han podido admirar a lo largo de la historia y que han dejado testimonios de elogio desde el medievo hasta nuestros días.

The Alcantara Bridge
It is a Roman arch bridge built between the years 103 and 104, which crosses the Tagus River in the Spanish town of Alcántara, in the province of Cáceres. Spain. It is a bridge that combines refined technique with aesthetics and functionality, one of the clearest exponents of what was Roman civil engineering impregnated with a propagandistic nature.
Its tall pillars provided with buttresses that enhance its verticality and its arches favor the sought-after monumentality and were considered the archetype of other works, such as the nearby but more modest Segura bridge. Its central arch alludes to the emperor in whose period it was built, Trajan, and to the municipalities in the area that contributed to the project. Damaged and rebuilt several times from the Middle Ages to the 19th century, the bridge has been described by chroniclers, travelers and scholars who have been able to admire it throughout history and who have left testimonies of praise from the Middle Ages to the present day. .

One of the handful of small villages on the island of Husavik. This is pretty deep into Faroese territory. Well, relative to the small size of the Faroes. From Vagar Airport you take the subsea tunnel into neighboring Streymoy Island before catching a ferry across to Sandoy.

Even though at first glance it looks a bit like the distant Eiffel Tower, it is not at all. It's just the pillar of the Passerelle du Palais de Justice in Lyon. Photographed through two pillars at the entrance to the Palais de Justice, and above it arches a wonderfully blue, but also somewhat boring sky.

According to one of the legends it was founded in 891. Originally it belonged to the Constantinopolitan Patriarchate. The first record of the monastery dates back to 1578. From 1778 (the Christians’ outcome from Crimea) to 1794 the monastery does not function. From 1806 it becomes the base monastery for the Black Sea Fleet hieromonachs. New temples are built: 1816 — the Great Martyr George Temple, 1850 — the Exaltation of the Cross Temple, 1893 — the Cave Church of the Nativity of Christ. The monastery is closed in 1929. It was revived in 1994. In 2000 there started the building of the Great Martyr George Temple, ruined in 1927.
Православный мужской монастырь в Балаклавском районе Севастополя, расположен у мыса Фиолент, на побережье Чёрного моря. По преданию, монастырь в 891 году основали греки-мореплаватели. Как гласит легенда, возле Фиолента их настигла буря, при этом судно чуть не разбилось о скалу. Путешественники попросили святого Георгия Победоносца о помощи, и буря утихла. В благодарность моряки основали на берегу обитель с церковью во имя этого святого.
