Nice to hear

Hi, how are you? I loved this place. I'll have to visit Spain someday, and I'll make a note of it. It seems very similar to Pompeii here in Italy.

@xpilar, what a fascinating glimpse into Mérida! Knowing it was founded by Augustus himself really makes these ancient stones speak volumes. The architecture is breathtaking! I particularly love the shot with the arches and the way the light plays across the stone. Thanks so much for sharing a bit of Extremadura's history with us. I can't wait to see part 2, and learn more!
