People built this. People are amazing, yes? Yes.

It is an impressive work of architecture, but the history attached to it makes it a bit of a controversial thing in Spain.

As an Spaniard, I'm glad you gave some context in your blog posting. Yes, it is huge, it is impossible to oversee when you travel from Madrid to Segovia. But it is also a symbol of oppression built by political prisoners.
Good shot.

I don't believe we can separate what is from what was, so I always try to add context to whatever I describe. Thanks.
