A view at the Independencia subway station, tiled with ceramics and painting inspired from Spain's Andalusian heritage, in Buenos Aires, Argentina on February 15, 2016.
The construction of the line which contains tiles depicting different regions in Spain with their landmark buildings and historical places, was financed in the 1930’s by a Spanish company.
Tiles with the Arabic inscriptions reading "There is no victor but Allah" in English, well known quote tiled on the Alhambra Palace in Spain, are seen at the station.
