When I was gallivanting around the region of
Aragón in east-central Spain a month ago, my first stop was the huge capital city of
Zaragoza. I’ve got a travelogue post in the works, but today I want to highlight an attractive draw to the city’s old town:
the street art. Having been tipped off to Zaragoza’s strong street art scene by Lauren Aloise’s
blog post, I was on the look out while in town and managed to come across some beautiful and intriguing pieces throughout the historic core and the neighborhood to the west, El Gancho. The next time you’re passing through Zaragoza, keep your eyes out for some surprising graffitied walls!
What was your favorite street art from this post? Do you think street art makes a crumbling city more beautiful? Comment below!
