After all those years, all those rainy seasons, all those earthquakes this old wall still stands.

    Looks like it’s just hanging in there. It must have been well made in the first place…
    I love the greenery that has established itself so happily on the top.

    Nice. So many walls like this in La Antigua, truly a feast for the eyes.

    The tiled “Alto” signs are just beautiful. They should made them for souvenirs or something. The earth tones and reds in this picture are amazing. Mr. Graphic Designer strikes again…

    It does make one wonder why things built before people had the conveniences and improvements of the “modern” age have tended to sometimes last longer than those made using newer materirals and technology.

    Nice shot!

    I love the photo—will add it to my collection of walls, doors and windows.

    From the top down it reminds me of the “circle Of Life” new, vibrant, crisp and clean only to end up dark, dusty, dirty and decayed.

    The transition of colors works very well with that theme.

    Lovely shot, lots of perfect textures. It looks better at the larger size.

    The picture is quite beautiful. The colors, the textures.
    I can´t imagine how many years does this wall have. How many people have seen it, how many colors it has been painted. Wonderful, really
