Below are some of the photos from Seville, Spain.
To our surprise, the Bullfight is still a popular pastime in Spain held Sunday afternoon from April through October. Newspapers report Bullfight in the Art section, rather than in the Sports section. The bulls (Toro in Spanish) are picked for their bravery and their intelligence.

檔案註釋: Below is considered the world largest Gothic( 歌德式) Cathedral, and the world third largest church ( next to St. Peter in Vatican, St. Paul in London). Interestingly, this cathedral (天主教堂) was expanded from a Moorish (Islam) mosque (回教寺). You can see the body of the tower is of Islamic (回教)architecture, yet with a Catholic top (head). Before Spain became a Catholic country, it was occupied by Iberians,... Romans, and Moorish (Islam from 711AD-1236AD).
