Spain and Portugal (hereinafter referred to as "two teeth") are located in the Iberian Peninsula in the south of Europe. Taking advantage of the spring breeze in April, our delegation spent a ten day pleasant journey in these two countries. The Iberian Peninsula is adjacent to the Mediterranean Sea in the East, the Atlantic Ocean in the west, and the African continent across the Strait of gibraltarian in the south. It has a superior geographical location, beautiful natural environment, rich products and a warm and pleasant climate. In April, the Iberian Peninsula is sunny and full of flowers. Spain and Portugal have a long history of cultural heritage and numerous cultural relics. Among them, Spain alone has 44 world cultural heritages. From ancient times to the present, Spain has experienced the rule of many nationalities and ups and downs for several times. The ancient Romans and Moors were the rulers of the peninsula. Among them, the Islamic culture, which has governed the peninsula for more than 800 years, has the greatest impact on later generations, After the moors withdrew from the peninsula, the Western Christians became the masters of the peninsula, and their culture has been influencing until now“ "Liangya" combines the history and culture of various nationalities, showing its rich and colorful charm. We drove through the plains, mountains, cities and villages, visited the cultural relics, tasted Spanish red wine, paella, Portuguese roast beef, egg tarts, and enjoyed the warm sea breeze, blue sky, white clouds, sunshine and sand beach of the Mediterranean Sea on the east coast; To the west coast to look forward to the Atlantic Ocean, waves, surging; Barcelona paid homage to the masterwork of Gaudi, a master of modern architecture, and to the ancient Roman grand theatre which was left over by marida more than 2000 years ago; Seville celebrates the "Spring Festival" with the citizens by carriage; Longda's cliff edge, feel the Spanish romance; The Alhambra Palace in Granada recalls the last glory of the moors; Lisbon's last shopping trip: ten days of wonderful, short and unforgettable "two teeth" trip. The "two teeth" tour with the tour group is quite satisfactory in terms of food, accommodation, transportation and scenic spot arrangement. Although we have to run several places every day, we still feel relaxed. Besides, the tour guide is very good. He is not only dedicated, but also has rich knowledge. Every scenic spot can be explained clearly and in detail. The tour fee is reasonable and the cost performance is quite high, If it is free travel, it may take half a month to see so many places, and it will be hard. Because it's a group tour, we don't have to consider the itinerary, but we should remind all friends who are going to Europe to pay attention to their personal property safety. The level of thieves in Europe is extraordinary, and the speed and technique are very skillful. Our group friend was targeted by a man and a woman on the business square in Lisbon, Portugal, In an instant, he stole the Nikon d800 + lens (weighing 5-6 kg) from the camera bag behind him. Fortunately, the group members found it in time, chased out more than 20 meters while shouting, caught the thief and demanded the camera back. On the last day when we had breakfast in a five-star hotel in Lisbon, a Taiwanese tourist put his bag on his seat and went to get something to eat. When he came back, his bag was gone. All his documents, cards and money were lost. There were so many people sitting next to him that no one had taken his bag. So I remind you to pay special attention when you go to Europe.

The main entrance of guile park is a gatehouse and a stable.
The colonnade hall was designed and built by Gaudi for the residents as a market.
Only two houses have been built in guile park. This house is Gaudi's residence.
Founded in 1882, Saint's Cathedral is the most representative masterpiece left by Gaudi for later generations. For the construction of this saint's Cathedral, Gaudi almost exhausted all his energy in the latter half of his life. When Gaudi died, the church was not completed. It was not completed until 2010. However, after more than 100 years, many parts that had been built before will be repaired again. It is also the only building in the world that has not yet been completed and has been approved as a world cultural heritage by the United Nations. This is the crucifixion building on the west side of the church. It was built after Gaudi died.
It shows the "positive aspect of suffering" of Jesus' death.
This is Gaudi's "front of the birth of Jesus" and the four bell tower. This sculpture depicting the birth of Jesus completely implements nature and realism. It can't be seen that it is all made of stone.
Prices in Spain are not high. This is the price of street restaurants, which is quite low in terms of local income.

The St. Josep market on lambras Street mainly sells food, fruits and vegetables, and all kinds of seafood. All kinds of delicious food are dazzling, colorful, dazzling, and salivating. Looking at the price, it's really amazing. I really want to buy a little bit of everything. If it's free travel, it's a good place that can't be let go.
In the seafood restaurant that is ready to order and cook in the market, when you see all kinds of fresh seafood turning into Spanish food, you can't walk any more. Because you are with the group, you have already arranged the group meal, and the time is limited, so you have to give up.
Standing in the center of the port, the Columbus memorial tower is about 60 meters high. Standing on the top of the tower, Columbus waves his right hand to the sea and holds the gift pipe of America in his left hand. It was built in 1888 when the Barcelona Expo was held, and it has been more than 100 years now. There is an elevator in the tower that can reach the top of the tower.

The ghetto of Cordoba has a labyrinth like road. Jews used to be the economic pillar of the Caliphate empire of Cordoba and received generous treatment from generation to generation. After the Christian movement to recover lost territory in 1492, with the release of the Jewish expulsion order, they were all driven out of the city, but the Jewish culture and architecture have been preserved for a long time. The characteristics of the houses in the ghetto are white walls, which are very neat. Today, the ghetto of Cordoba has become a world cultural heritage.
The minaret of the mosque can be seen at the end of the narrow and deep alley.

The whole city is surrounded by this enthusiasm. Seville is also the birthplace of flamenco dance, another quintessence of Spain.
When we arrived in Seville, it happened to be the annual "Holy Week" and "Spring Festival", which started on April 21 and ended on April 26. All the flowers in the city are in full bloom, colorful and beautiful in spring.
On the spot, I personally feel the strong festival atmosphere in Serbia. Almost all the women wear colorful national festival costumes, dress up for a flower show, and travel in carriages.
In Seville, we also entered the country to do as the Romans do, taking a carriage tour of the city. This kind of horse drawn car can make up to five people. No matter how many people take it, it's more than 80 euro / 40 minutes. We pack the car for four people, with an average of 20 euro per person. (the more people, the more cost-effective) run around saldo street and Spain square in the downtown area, about 45 minutes.
Carriage is one of the main means of transportation in Seville. Most of them are drawn by one horse, and there are two horses, three horses, or even six horses. They can do more than ten people at most. Of course, the price is expensive. Taxis are very formal. Like taxis, many cabbies are very gentlemanly, wearing black hats and black suits. Carriages use the same lanes as cars and follow the same traffic rules.
Seville is very beautiful in full bloom. The Spring Festival in Seville (that is, "Holy Week" and "Spring Festival memorial service" in late April) is one of the three major festivals in Spain. It is a typical program for men in formal clothes and women in national clothes to take a carriage parade. This time of year will attract a large number of foreign tourists to visit here.
Serbia cathedral is the largest church in Spain, second only to St. Peter's Cathedral in Rome and St. Paul's Cathedral in London, with a depth of 116 meters and a width of 76 meters. In 1401, the church at that time decided to build an "amazing building". Even think we are not normal "a church", so in the ruins of the mosque after a century built this cathedral. The highest minaret is called the gilarda tower, which is 97 meters high. It was originally the minaret of the mosque, but later added a silversmith style bell tower. The bronze statue on the minaret will keep rotating in windy weather.
The golden tower is located on the left bank of the guadalkivile river. It is an equilateral dodecagonal tower.
Spain is the earliest and largest colonial power in the West Indies comprehensive archives in Serbia. In addition to America and Africa, the Philippines, Indonesia and Malay Peninsula in Asia were all its colonies.

My husband and wife take a group photo in Spain square.
The Spanish Square is a 180 degree semicircle, with a circle of pool water and beautiful scenery.
After learning that we are Chinese, the passionate Spanish girl warmly welcomed our request for taking photos, put forward different postures for us to take photos, and refused to take photos with us. She was very friendly. People often say that beautiful Spanish girls are enthusiastic, but only when we get to Seville do we feel that this is true.
These gorgeous women not only warmly welcome us to take photos, but also take the initiative to teach us how to dance flamenco.
So many people are preparing to enter to watch the bullfight.

The Roman theater, built in 24 BC, has a temple with 32 marble pillars at the back of the stage, and a semi-circular auditorium can accommodate more than 6000 people. Although more than 2000 years have passed, the theater is still well preserved in general. Apart from the collapse of the temple in the backstage, it is still intact and can still meet the demand of performance.
On the day of our arrival, we happened to meet some local schools holding activities here to perform a drama about reflecting the social life of ancient Rome, which was edited and rehearsed by them. Like these young students, we were lucky to be able to watch the performance in the theater built and left over more than 2000 years ago. We are really filled with emotion and excited.
The ancient Roman priestess walked down from the stands barefoot.
On the stage, the female slaves living at the bottom of ancient Rome are kneeling sadly and praying to heaven. The female priests are denouncing the brutality of the Roman noble slave owners.

The amphitheater left by ancient Rome was built in 8 BC, with a large scale. At that time, it could hold 14000 spectators. It was the venue for Gladiator competition and chariot competition. There was also an underground passage in the center of the theater, from which animals such as lions and tigers could enter to fight with gladiators, and water could be poured into the arena to simulate sea battle performance, The design of the theater is scientific, reasonable and practical, and the construction is firm and durable, which makes people admire the strength and wisdom of the ancients
Although the house had already collapsed, the pillars and canals were basically intact.
Over the amphitheater, there are more than ten arched passageways in different directions for the audience to go in and out, just like today's large stadiums.
Visit the ruins of ancient Rome in Yuli: spring breeze in April, visit "two teeth", colorful and eye-catching flowers; Flamenco has never seen it. His interest lies in the ancient culture.
