Batalha (Dec 08 2004 20:59 GMT) - Aprovechando esta especie de túnel del tiempo que es el puente de diciembre (se entra el 3 y se sale el 9, sin saber muy bien qué ha pasado con todos esos días) bajamos hasta Lisboa con paradinha en Ericeira, pueblecito costero que todo alcalde gallego debería visitar al menos una vez en su vida para aprender que progreso, modernidad y desarrollo son conceptos compatibles con el de belleza. También hacemos alto en el Monasterio de Batalha, espectacular monumento que conmemora la victoria de las tropas de Joao I sobre los castellanos en la batalla de Aljubarrota (1385). Ojos expertos nos comentan que se trata de un ejemplar único de gótico pasado de vueltas (más si cabe), pero aparte de la asombrosa organización de las hiladas de sillares de la fachada, lo que más nos gusta son las Capelas Imperfeitas y la sensación de que los espacios interiores son muchísimo más altos de lo que parecen revelar sus formas exteriores, como si en el juego de ordenar estructura y adornos los constructores hubiesen escondido una parte del cielo que cubre el edificio: el paraíso en un falso techo. |
