EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Gros district in San Sebastian, Spain, circa 1910. The photograph showcases a quaint bridge crossing a dried-up riverbed, likely the Urumea, which once flowed freely through the heart of this historic district. The bridge, with its intricate stonework and iron railings, stands as a testament to the engineering prowess of the past. In the background, the hills of Gros district rise majestically, their verdant slopes dotted with traditional Basque houses. The buildings, with their distinctive red-tiled roofs and whitewashed walls, exude an air of charm and tranquility. The narrow, cobblestone streets, devoid of modern vehicles, add to the timeless charm of the scene. San Sebastian, a northern coastal city in Spain, was a popular destination even in the early 1900s, drawing tourists from around the world with its beautiful beaches, delicious cuisine, and rich cultural heritage. The Gros district, with its picturesque streets and stunning vistas, was a favorite among visitors. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a simpler time when life moved at a slower pace. The absence of modern conveniences and the natural beauty of the landscape make for a breathtaking and nostalgic view. The bridge, the buildings, and the hills of Gros district stand as enduring symbols of San Sebastian's rich history and enduring charm.
