bellver castle.

you can see this castle from where we live in palma and there is a path through the forest that takes you right to it so seeing as we only have a few more weeks here in mallorca we figured we'd better get to it!

naked  statues are really no big deal after all those nude spanish beaches.


the bellver castle is one of the few circular shaped castles in europe




not only was it fun to explore the castle but you could see everything from the top

it was fun to see the city we've been living in all this time from another  viewpoint

 the port where the cruise ships come in
close up of the city of palma & the harbor

this castle even had a drawbridge & moat surrounding it...  pretty legit.

  3. So I really need reading glasses--the first time I read this I thought it said, "Believers Castle" which really is more romantic--I thought it meant maybe you would go there, make a wish and if you "believed" it would come true. Regardless, it looks like a fairy tale especially since you reach it through a path in the woods. Imagine the bridal pics you could have made here. Maybe take a few pictures and then photoshop yourself in!

  4. Well, perhaps a bridal picture next the naked man might be a bit awkward!
