Bearings window

We have traveled a lot and have never seen this before... So cool to see how they kept cooler.

Heritage dating from Muslin era in Iberian Península. This window offers privacy and shadow to those who inhabited the house.

As janelas de rótulas são uma herança islâmica, formadas por tabuinhas de madeira, tendo como função deixar circular o ar e permitir espreitar para fora, preservando a privacidade de quem está dentro de casa, evitando que quem está atrás da janela seja visto por quem está de fora.

Curiosity of Islamic style located in a small secluded street of Beja. Made of old wood, this type of windows with Arabic motifs allowed to see the exterior hiding the interior of the house, at the same time that it favored the entry of air and provided shade to the inhabitants of the house. As a peculiarity to see in BEJA, it's fine, but do not expect to find anything of the other world.

Está tudo degradado, uma pena.
