Granite scenery near Zarzalejo, in Madrid Province. A fine day for a walk in the country, vaguely following a Roman road.

In the distance the Sierra de Guadarrama. The Roman road probably passed slightly to the right of here; the modern path goes straight ahead as you see at the left of the shot.

Est-ce que par hasard le granite de la région
n'est pas exploité ?( vu la quantité et la disponibilité).
Bonne fin de nuit.

It has been quarried for centuries, Malik. The streets of Madrid are paved with it! Quarrying today does continue but in the less scenic places.
