Plaza Los Arcos

As I mentioned before on a post, this places has a legend that started when the Marquis first saw Sister Marcela, the love between them arose immediately. But because of the delicate situation, first because Sister Marcela was a nun and second because she was his wife's niece, they could never have realized their love for what they came to an agreement: The covenant of love was as follows: She offered him his Love based on mutual understanding, but above all full of purity, asking in return "only" to build the now majestic Aqueduct to lead the water to the convent of the Capuchins. The story behind one of the most important aqueducts in the world, has only one reason: The love between a Basque in love and a nun. This is the legend of the Marquis of the Villa del Villar del Águila and one of the most beautiful Capuchin nuns of the time, Sr. Marcela.

 

There are 74 arches and it's the most important monument in my city, according to the legend, it was a love story. These pictures are from the little plaza built recently next to the monument so we could sit, relax and enjoy the view.

Re: Plaza Los Arcos

grazie @LuisHM, questo parco è, in alcune immagini, assolutamente commovente. Sai chi è l'artista che lo ha progettato, e lo scultore che ha creato queste bellissime statue?
