Pretty Pearl Sculpture in La Paz, Mexico

 I like landmarks as quick openers to slide shows, articles, even boxes of brochures saved from recent holidays. Everybody knows Tower Bridge the symbol for London, England, UK, and the Eiffel Tower for Paris, France, but now here's a new one, the pearl.

The Spanish, Mexican Spanish, name for this sculpture is La Perla. Wonderful - a quick way to learn one new word of Spanish. I love learning languages from place names. La Perla is in La Paz, which means peace.
