Windmills at sunset in Campo de Cryptana, Spain (9)

After enjoying the magnificent view at Windmill Hill, we returned to the inn and waited.

The reason I chose to stay in Campo de Cryptana this time was to see the windmills illuminated by the setting sun.

The windmill hill of Campo de Cryptana is not just famous for its sunsets....

However, even before I began my trip, I was eager to see the view of the pure white windmills turning bright red in the setting sun.

And as expected, the windmill hill near sunset was unspeakably beautiful.

The setting sun sinking into the horizon and the land turning red.

It was like a dream as the colors of the world changed moment by moment with the passage of time.
