1. Templo de Debod A curiosity can be found right in the heart of Madrid, Spain: This temple used to be a ruin in Egypt and was given to the people of Spain to thank for their support on many occasions. It was completely disassembled, restored and re-erected on a hill overlooking the royal palaces. It was set into a lagoon of water, which uses smart illumination to create these fantastic mirror effects. Photo Data: File ID - 16703. Camera Model Name - Canon PowerShot S230.
