HWW ~ Ibiza and its walls.

HWW ~ Ibiza and its walls.
Ibiza has a lot of history. The port was settled in 654 BC by the Phoenicians and after that it saw many invaders and new occupants through the ages. It is no surprise then that such walls as we see here were soon erected and as per usual in such places the churches built on the highest point. The archway leads us right into the inner walled town up to the military sections and cathedral.

The PiP shows one of the many small historic remains along the walls themselves.

HWW, have a great day.

An imposing wall, which is to be expected, and I love all the angles in this beautiful shot Herb. An excellent PiP. I haven't visited Ibiza but it looks well worth a visit.
Happy Wednesday, Rosa.

Hi Tanja. So glad that this has revived nice memories for you. I know Ibiza is a beautiful Island as we once spent a week here -at Portinatx at the very north of the Island too.

Best Wishes and HWW. Enjoy the week, Herb

Portinatx ist gar nicht so weit von „uns“ entfernt, Herb…wie fahren den Norden gerne ab um schöne Ecken zu finden…dort oben gefällt es mir auch sehr :)
Komm gut durch die Woche und Danke für Deine nette Antwort!

Cheers Peter. We did spend an evening here many years back, just people watching as we sipped our sangria's. My nephew came to the Island once for 5 days and never saw the sun!
That being said -it is really a most beautiful place.

Did you get over there on your travels?

Cheers. Herb

A very late response! Yes, we did last November taking the ferry from Denia. A very quiet and beautiful place it was too.
