The location is excellent, the shape is strong, and the viewing is very strong, but the scene is a bit bloody for the Chinese, but it is very used to the European Spaniards! It is an important learning base for a deep understanding of bullfighting culture.
There was nothing to arrange this trip when traveling in Madrid, because it was very cruel. But after arriving, it was Spain's national skills. It was a pity not to watch it here. The results were all admitted. The results were wonderful but bloody! Contradiction!
The Las Ventas bullring is Spain's highest level of bullfighting performance, brick walls decorated with mosaics decorated with the emblems of Spain's provinces. My father is very enthusiastic about watching this performance, but unfortunately the bullfighting season began in late March. Through the visit to learn more about this Spanish national culture, bullfighting in Spain has a lot of controversy, and the admirers think it is the art of death, courage and performance. Opponents see it as a cruel massacre and torture.
When going to the non-bullfighting period, the photo effect is difficult to have a sense of spectacular.
E-ticket is easy to use
It is worth seeing a different Spanish/Bullfighting, very exciting! A struggle deep inside (feeling shocking, seeing the cow and feeling worried) (but worthwhile trip!)
One of the three major Spanish Nazis, it is worth a visit
The biggest bullfight in Spain is a weekly bullfight. It is said that bullfighters are of noble origin and absolutely high-risk professions. On the spot, bullfighters are overturned and carried down. Six cows per game, various routines, leading, playing capes, spearmen, flower darts and so on. Spaniards attach great importance to their national quintessence. Each event has an independently printed sequence of bullfighting appearances, bullfighter introductions and so on. The scene is full of seats and the atmosphere whistles and applause rise and fall one after another. But, how to say, without looking at regret, even more regret, the scene feels very bloody and cruel
