The Conciergerie is a former prison in Paris, France, located on the west of the Île de la Cité (literally "Island of the City"). It was part of the former royal palace, the Palais de la Cité, now known as the Palais de Justice, which is still used for judicial purposes. Hundreds of prisoners during the French Revolution were taken from the Conciergerie to be executed on the guillotine at a number of locations around Paris. via 500px http://ift.tt/1mectId

Across the Horizon by PedroQuintela1
My today´s image embraces again my quest for seeking natural and human beauty. In this case they were bonded for hundreds of years ago in the village of Monsanto. It's a panorama and Le shot, because the view was to wide to get it and light was fading. With traces of man is from Early Stone Age, and Elected the "most Portuguese village of Portugal" in 1938, Monsanto has is unique. Built around granite boulders of varying sizes, many houses are actually within the rocks. The countryside has breathtaking views across Portugal and Spain. I kindly ask you to take a few seconds, breath and enjoy the view. Thanks for the visit and support, as always! Be happy, please. :) via 500px http://ift.tt/1sKs2wW
