5 WONDERS OF EUROPE. TEACHER'S RANKING.

Today I want to talk you about what are, in my opinion, the 5 wonders of Europe, in terms of architecture. It is a selction of the most beautiful and emblematic buildings in our continent. Let's go.

Number 5. Stonehenge.

Stonehenge is a mysterious circle of enormous stones built 5000 years ago. The stones were brought from far away (more than 100 kms). Archeologists think that Stonehenge was a solar calendar, like an astronomical observatory.

Number 4. Parthenon.

Ancient Greek people built this amazing temple 2500 years ago. It was dedicated to Athena, the goddess of wisdom. It is completely made of white pure marble, and originally it was decorated with beautiful statues. Today those statues are in the British Museum (London).

Number 3. Alhambra.

In Granada (south Spain) we can find one of the most beautiful palaces ever built. It is a great complex where you can find gardens, amazing halls, towers, water reservoirs... It was developed by muslim kings of Granada. There is a great variety of decorations which make this palace one of the finest ones in the world.

Number 2. Colosseum.

Ancient Romans love fighting spectacles; and with that purpose they built this great construction 2000 years ago. It could keep 70.000 people inside. There were gladiator fighting, animal fighting... Even they used to celebrate ship fighting (they flooded the inner space with water, and then two or more ships battled between them)

Number 1. Hagia Sophia.

In Istambul, capital city of Turkey, we can find the most amazing construction of all Europe. 1400 years ago emperor Constantine decided to raise the greatest church ever built. He tried and fail many times; but finally he succeded, giving us Hagia Sophia. A great an original church with one of the greatest domes ever done.

The whistling scarecrow. Story.

 

Santa Amalia spooky stories. The lady of the well. Part five. End.

People shivered. A baby bone? How was this possible? The doctor took the bone and carried it to the Gardia Civil. They arrived very soon, taking control over the draining. "OK!! All under control!! Star the draining again!! Turn on the pumps!!" The water flowed again, street down. After the first bone, a baby skull appeared. Then, more small bones, ribs, hips... Soon they find out the macabre truth: the well was a cemetery full of baby corpses. Hundreds of them. Maybe thousands. Who could now? Then, an old woman spoke:

"Do you remember that woman, Luisa, the one who lost her baby many years ago? She was admitted in a psychiatric center in Mérida because she blamed the Lady of the well about the kidnapping of her baby.Yes, the very same lady of the well. That one who never gets old. That one who's always beautiful. She lives just here, in this house in front of the well. Maybe...

The Guardia Civil broke in the beautiful's woman house. There was nobody there. They searched all the house, room by room. Nothing. The beautiful woman has vanished. Finally, in the last room, on a table, they found a note. It said:

At the end, Luisa was not crazy. 

Sincerely yours: The beautiful woman.

Santa Amalia spooky stories. The lady of the well. Part four.

Time passed by. Hardly anyone remembered Luisa and her missing baby. Those neighbours got old, and died. And their children grew. All was changing. All... excepting the beautiful woman. She was always beautiful and young. Certainly strange. People still listened to the meows, like baby cries, from her home. But apart of that, nothing more. Until one day the major ordered to clean up the well. The water had become sour and dark. Nobody could drink it. And if you watered the plants with that water, they died in a few hours. 

The day of the cleaning was a public event. Many people were watching, because the well has never been cleaned. What could appear? Old knives, maybe coins, some old buckets... They started to drain the water. The wet stones were appearing, while the water level was going down. After a few hours, the well was almost empty. Only a half meter of water. And suddenly a worker screamed 

"Stop the draining! There is a bone here. Maybe a lamb bone, or a dog bone"

"Let me have a look" said the doctor of Santa Amalia, who whas also there watching the well. The doctor examined the bone during 20 long seconds. "This is not an animal bone. This is a human bone. A baby bone."

Julio's text. Paranormal activity in the Assembly of Extremadura. 5th grade.

The assembly of Extremadura is a very old building. This building was previously a hospital. Many people died there. Actually there are noises and appeareances. Several workers have seen, heard and felt paranormal events (baby crying, spirits, paintings and sculptures that come to life, etc)

My father works there and he tells me horror stories he has heard. Two workers from his office saw a white light that crossed the corridor. Both them locked the door, scaried about they saw.

Another tells how the doors of this office opened, and there is no one. Babies cry and cry for help, mainly at night. These stories have reached TV (Cuarto Milenio broadcast a report about these paranormal events)

So, if you want to live a paranormal experience, do not forget to visit it.

Santa Amalia spooky stories. The lady of the well. Part three.

"What happens? Why do you enter in my house? Why do you break down my door?"

"Bitch!!! You have kidnapped my baby. Where do you have him?"

"Dear neighbours: this woman is crazy. I do not kidnap children. In fact, I have been all the evening reading this book. Did any of you see me going out my house?"

"Certanly, I have not seen her going out", said one of the neighbours. "And I have been all the afternoon in the street, fixing my cart"

"I swear!! She was in my hose, floating over my baby!! She has caught it!!"

"Come on. Let's go out. Luisa, this is a nonsense"

"Please, you have to trust me!! She is a devil!!"

"Excuse us, lady. We are taking Luisa out. And we are going to repair your door now. Sorry for everything"

"Do not worry, dear neighbours. I forgive you. And now, take this insane woman out of here"

That night Luisa was admitted to a psychiatric center in Mérida. And everything went back to normal. Never again a baby dissapeared in Santa Amalia. Well, not in Santa Amalia. But in nearby towns, like Medellín, Valdetorres, Miajadas or Don Benito, babies continued dissapearing. But neighbours from Santa Amalia did not worry, because their town was a quite and peaceful place. And their babies grown safe and soon.

Santa Amalia spooky stories. The lady of the well. Part two.

All neighbours went out of their homes, alarmed by those screams. The saw it was Luisa, a woman from Santa Amalia. "What's going on, Luisa? What happens? Are you OK?"

"My poor baby... She has taken my poor baby!! She is a daughter of the devil!! You have to break down the door. Now!!"

"OK Luisa. Let's calm down. Are you sure...?

"There is no time!! Please, help me. We have to break down the door now, before too late. I saw her floating over the cradle. I caught her with my baby on his arms. She looked at me with red eyes, like embers from hell. Then she laughed at me and then she dissapeared in fog. But I know it was her. Open the door!! Open the door, daughter of satan!!

The neighbours belived her. They took a big bench and they started banging on the door. After 6 tries, the door gave away. Luisa ran inside, looking for her baby. The neighbours went behind. They found the beautiful woman sitting on a chair, reading a book.

The lady of the well. Santa Amalia's spooky story V. First part.

Magdalena well

In Magdalena Street there is a wide and deep well, covered by a metal grid. This well is very old; it was digged in the year 1827, when Santa Amalia was founded. And it is surrounded by legend. A tragic and dark legend.

When is getting dark in cold October evenings, old people still tell that many years ago, close to the well, a weird and beautiful woman lived. She was very silent and reserved. She never went out of home at daylight. Her neighbours were intrigued about her. No husband, no family, no friends... The only thing they knew is that she had to have cats, because at night, from time to time, it was possible to listen to the meows of them. Well, meows... This is what neighbours tried to convince themselves. Because more than meows, these wailings seemed to by baby crying. But nobody worried about that, because the cries didn't last more than one or two minutes. Yes; there were meows. Purely and simply meows.

But the thing changed a day when a woman arrived, all crazy, to Magdalena well. She was screaming, slamming the door of the beautiful woman. "Open the door, bloody bitch!!" "I swear I will kill you!!" "Open the door!!" "My baby!!" "Where's my baby?" Then she fell on her knees, crying "My baby... My poor baby..."
