Love that enormous wall!

Love that enormous wall!
Zarza de Granadilla, Estremadura, deserted village due to it being cut off from the world after the surrounding valley was turned into a reservoir in the 50s. Castle partiually hidden by a large tree,

It looks beautiful. How sad the residents must have been to leave.

I don't think the Franco regime gave them much in compensation either!

Great shot, Andy! The depopulation of such regions in Spain seems for some to be progressing in a frightening way.

My girlfriend has recently been at a 4 day conference in Soria on this very subject. I have been aware of these matters since I was knee-high to a grasshopper. The knowledge of how this happened is easy to acquire. The answers to this ever-deepening crisis, less so.

What a terrible shame to just abandon these gorgeous houses. If you could manage to reach it, why can't others? No roads there?

Andy Rodker club has replied to Jenny McIntyre club
Yes. But it's now a tourist destination only, Jenny. Like most rural villages and towns in Spain, de-population and migration to the big cities has been, and still is, a massive problem.
