The City of Water

by ChrsStrl - last update: Aug 15, 2003

A city of life

Cecilia Rodriguez Gardens
Madrid is 200 miles inland yet is famed for its fresh fish. You approach it over bare brown fields yet the city is alive with water. Everywhere it runs, in fountains, cascades, numerous gardeners' hoses, and it makes the city beautiful. They use water as architecture. It is also a city where life never stops.

Pros:"Life and liveliness - so much art, so much living"
Cons:"The heat, until you adapt!"
In A Nutshell:"A city with so much to offer everyone. Fantastic!"
