However, Spanish architecture is not just a dream scene in TV series. There are many styles of architecture here, such as Gothic churches, Arabic courtyards, magnificent castles and ever-changing modern buildings.
Spanish architectural history is also a silhouette of national history. Is the Alhambra Palace (also known as the Red Palace) in southern Granada related to the red castle in Fire and Ice? ) is the epitome of a dynasty in which the Moors occupied Spain for 800 years; The cathedral in Toledo, the ancient capital of central China, is magnificent and overlooks the whole city. The architecture of Toledo witnessed the prosperity of Islam, Christianity and Judaism here. In segovia, the ancient Roman aqueduct, built 50 years ago, witnessed the architectural skills and wisdom of the ancient Romans. Because of its special position in architecture, it was listed in the World Heritage List on 1985. There are castles in Spanish cities, which is the prototype of the castle where Snow White lives in Disney cartoons!
The fate between Spain and architecture has continued to this day, and the atmosphere full of architectural charm and inspiration has attracted the arrival of countless world-class architects. This year, three Spanish architects won the 20 17 Pritzker Architecture Award. Universities here have also become the cradle of training architects.
