Continuing with the interesting post created for -ortho 158-, I would like to show them an environment that has changed because of the mass tourism into this case the images they correspond to Benidorm Spain.
The mass tourism really has changed the landscape of idyllic and interesting places around the earth.
And strangly about the personal thing I think that the architects simultaneously that we design and construct big projects, we destroy the natural environments.
Benidorm Spain 1961, picture taken in internet.
Benidorm at present.

Thanks for sharing this. Nice to see how time changes.
Seems that in 1961 you can find a place. Now they have to fight for a good place on the beach.

Yes, and there are a lot of other examples. Here, a pic taken in 1983 (near Jaisalmer, in Rajasthan):
and the same place, today (by jKM):
It's obviously good that they have now cheap electricity, but why did they need to put those turbines just there, while the place is right in the middle of the desert???
