  • Dear Manuel, Congratulations for this fantastic album! How proud we spaniards should feel about what Aragon has meant to us througout History, and how well you have captured it in all and each one of your photos! Keep up the great work of transmitting so much beauty, along with history and culture, through your photographic art! Warmest regards from another spanish region: The Canary Islands of Spain. Angela

  • De nuevo, Manuel, has vuelto a brindarnos un magnífico album de esa gigante saga de tierras aragonesas, orgullo de todos los que nos sentimos profundamente agradecidos a los valores historicos, culturales, patrióticos, etc. que dicha tierra y su gente representa para el resto de los españles. ¡Qué arte fotográfico derrochas en todas y cada una de sus fotos! Te felicito. Mis más cordiales saludos desde la región española más ultraperiférica: La Región Canaria. Angela

  • Me ha gustado mucho esta coleccin de fotos que nos muestras en tu lbum, Manuel, muy especialmente las de esos ridos paisajes aragoneses, que en invierno te hielan de fro y en verano te derriten a causa del intenso calor. Has logrado unas imgenes realmente preciosas. Enhorabuena! Un abrazo muy grande de Joana

  • ARAGON is an autonomous region of Spain. It has a low population density, and therefore there are large, almost deserted spaces. More than half the population live in Zaragoza. The Pyrenees of Aragon include the greatest peaks and most secluded valleys, some of which are very difficult to access and have retained unspoiled beauty. Further North, the valleys and plains are full of churches, towns, and exciting landscapes with great views and in the South lies the forgotten Teruel which is almost inaccessible, and even so astoundingly beautiful. Some medieval monuments of Teruel and Zaragoza are protected by the UNESCO as part of the World Heritage. Historically, Aragn was a Frankish feudal county, Jaca before becoming a self-proclaimed kingdom, which was united with the kingdom of Pamplona (later Navarre) in 925. The kingdom of Pamplona included the counties of Aragon, Sobrarbe, and Ribagorza, and the duchy of Castile. After King Sancho's death, the kingdom was divided between his sons. Ramiro I was initially named king of Aragon; later, after his brother Gonzalo's death, he was also named king of Sobrarbe and Ribagorza. The new kingdom grew quickly, and incorporated Navarra. This kingdom conquered the city of Zaragoza in 1118. Split from the kingdom of Navarre, the kingdom of Aragn was re-established in 1035 and lasted as a separate kingdom until 1479 when Ferdinand the Catholic married Isabella of Castile, making the Kingdom of Spain. This Crown was effectively ended after the dynastic union with Castile but the title continued being used until 1714. The “Kings of Aragn and Counts of Barcelona" ruled territories beyond the present region but also Catalonia, the Balearic Islands, Valencia, Sicily, Naples and Sardinia. In this album you can see pics from Calatayud, Zaragoza, Monasterio de Nuestra Seora de Rueda and some frozen landscapes.
