Palma de Mallorca - Visual Tour 2

Let's continue our journey through the city centre, by leaving it's border and proceding to it's heart. From Avenida de Alemaña we take Via Roma and head to the Rambla del Ducs de Palma de Mallorca.
La Rambla is a two way street with this wide and green path in the middle, where you can find benches, some repair from the sun and small stands that sell you drinks, ice creams and some food as well.
But, don't go there on a Sunday afternoon, everything's closed!

This is the fountain at the beginning of the Rambla

Clearly, a bench

offices

a typical palace with enclosed balconies

Modern and stylish rubbish bins (I love them even though I still haven't figured out properly how they work!)

Come back soon for new details!

Palma de Mallorca - Visual Tour 1

This is the first part of a visual tour of Palma de Mallorca, at least some important spots and some I like...
This tour starts from Plaza de España and continues north following Avenida Joan March, eclosing the northern borders of the city centre

Plaza de España



The train and coach station - just in front of Plaza de España


a beautiful palace along Avenida Joan March


a bank in Comte de Sallent (I have a soft spot for buildings that reflect their surroundings)


another lovely building in Avenida de Alemaña

Soon the second part!
