In the footsteps of Lawrence

I grew up with my grandparents and when I was six my grandmother introduced me to Lawrence of Arabia. Although I didn’t really understand the movie, thanks to the landscapes, the soundtrack and the enigmatic Peter O’Toole, this was the start of a lifelong affair with movies. Furthermore, When I saw the movie again in the fall of 2018, I discovered that part of the movie had been filmed in Spain! The next day we found ourselves in Tabernas for some exploring:

On top of a hill, you can see the ruins of an 11th century castle. The local church is also worth a look:

There are picturesque villages nearby:

And there is of course the desert:
