Good Friday 2018

A bit of Easter Week at Murcia. The morning procession at Good Friday is named: Procession of Salzillos (here many explanations of previous years, or in Eater Week label).

Monteagudo views

Visiting Monteagudo labels, you can see more pictures about this place.
This time I want to write about a new promotional way for this place: Monteagudo, Frontera de Reinos (Kingdoms Border). I have not the opportunity to visit those promotional activities but you can visit its website to view this interesting initiative. A millennial place.

Sunset at Twin Towers Urban Center.

A sunset with blue twin towers on background from Isaac Peral garden (Three Cups garden).
I had posted some pictures about this offices building (here the best), but since 2016 was bought by Fuertes business group. A Murcian group. Since this time, the building has changed the name: now is Urban Center.

The Bar and the Playground

For those who has children, this is the best invent in decades: a bar (tapas bar) next to a playground. At El Malecon gardens.

Pavillion 2

This building is part of the former artillery barracks (Cuartel de Artillería. Pabellón 2). This space has a cultural target. A contemporany cultural objetive and it is opened for every contemporany artist who wants to create or to exhibit. Very interesting.

Crossroad

One of the entrances to the city of Murcia, next to El Malecón. Coming from the left is accessed from a highway. Following to the right we will arrive Town Hall of Murcia, Cathedral, Segura river, ... In front, it is acceded to the districts of San Antolín, San Andrés, among others.

San Antolín Church.

Although this building was built between 1945 and 1961, it is the third building that is built in the same place. The previous one (18th century) was destroyed during the Spanish Civil War. And the first data of a church in this place comes from 16th century.
Very close to this church is the Wall of Veronicas (Arab wall).

At the Backstage

At Auditorium of Region of Murcia annex building. On the back of the building. Carrying backline and all necessary for a concert.

Cross of the Workers

At the top of the mountain, the "Cross of the Workers", in homage to the workers (prisoners and free) who died during the construction of this dam during the Franco regime. The dam was inaugurated in 1963. It is the biggest dam on Segura river.

EcoCenajo

First of all I have to say that MurciaDailyPhoto has no receive any gratification for mentioning any hotel or hostel nor restaurant, and so on that appears on any article posted here.

As its website mentioned: "EcoCenajo is an innovation project in ecotourism, located next to the Cenajo reservoir (Moratalla). In the middle of an incomparable natural environment, EcoCenajo guarantees an integral and different experience of the natural environment through the sum of comfort, gastronomy and adventure sports."

I passed a few days (last summer) for relaxing in that surroundings. The hotel has also swimming pool.

Beautiful surroudings at Cenajo Hotel & Hostel. At Northwest of Region of Murcia, green colours are surroundings, cause at that part of the Region, snowing (sometimes) during winter and sometimes raining during spring and autumn.

Blooming Poppy

At Cieza (Region of Murcia), first blooming flowers before Spring starts.

Las Claras Museum, Main Entrance

A peaceful garden preceed before entry to the former muslim palace of Lobo King. Now, part of this place is a convent.
Previous pictures inside this historic place: facade, inner garden, ceiling.

Door of the Fortune-Teller

The origin of this door (in the MUBAM, Murcia) is linked to the fortune-teller Mari Chaves, a Judaizing witch of Portuguese origin, sentenced to the stake with her brother by the Inquisition tribunal in 1720.
At the door you can see elements ranging from Eastern, Persian, Greco-Roman and Judeo-Christian antiquity, the fantasy of the medieval bestiaries and the world of the oneiric, atavistic and esoteric of different traditions, all passed through the sieve of the Renaissance.
On the Door, there are different motifs from the Late Middle Ages, from the vegetal decorativism that invades all the figures to the different repertories derived from the bestiary, as well as from different images of exotic and bizarre roots.
