Any Thursday, the clock marked six: “An entrance please,” I told Mrs. of the box office. “Pass, it is the first visitor of the afternoon,” she told me. This is not usually heard in Spain, we are in historical records of travelers, the airplanes are brought from tourists and there is a tail for almost everything. But I was in Becerril de Campos, in Palencia, in the Church of Santa María, headquarters of the Territorial Museum of Campos del Renaádimient Save and the demon in a corner or a virgin with the child of a huge size, typical of the Italian school (the audioguía told me), it seemed that the sculptures and paintings watched every step it took, while enjoying the route, at a rhythm that had not experienced before and so it is when you look at the feet of the Holy Father that opens the exhibition, in the colors and lace Expressions, the details, the brushstrokes … This place is not filled, it looks calmly and overwhelms, come to know it. Becerril gave me another unexpected surprise, San Pedro Cultural, another 12th -century Romanesque church converted into a center dedicated to astronomy with amazing remodeling, in which all the starry sky of the summer nights is recreated in its vault; There is also a pendulum from Foucault, the first experiment conducted to demonstrate the rotation of the earth or a meridian line used as a clock and calendar. I stayed two days in Becerril de Campos, 15 kilometers from Palencia Capital, living the quiet rhythm and away from the coming tourist mass.
