Red Bougainvillea with a Ruin Backdrop with Dramatic Lights

Here’s your illustrated Spanish word of the day: Bugambilea for Bougainvillea.

Even though La Antigua Guatemala is known as “the city of the perpetual roses”. In my humble opinion, this slogan should be changed to “The City of the Perpetual Bougainvilleas.”

Bougainvillea is a genus of thorny ornamental vines, bushes, or trees. The inflorescence consists of large colourful sepallike bracts which surround three simple waxy flowers. Source: Wikipedia
