Do you love Latin America?

>>214110601 (OP)
Yes, you're the Southeast Asia of the New World.

Brazil > Latin America

>>214111165
Brazil is latinx tho

Yes I wished I was a true conquistador

>>214111165

Why does LatAm look so old compared to the USA and Canada?

>>214112849
no development golden age

>>214112849
I mean that those streets feel more like something you'd find in Europe, it's old and historical, it's narrow, personal, built in bricks, etc. While everything in the english speaking countries feel like it was built 50 years ago

>>214110601 (OP)
That looks lovely, what city is it?

>>214112930
quito, in equator

>>214112930
I think it's Quito, which has one of the most beautiful and best-preserved Spanish Historic Centers in Latin America.

>>214112901
Because North America suffered more than us with the destruction of old urban landscapes for car infrastructure. It also happened in Brazil but in smaller scale.

>those streets feel more like something you'd find in Europe, it's old and historical, it's narrow, personal, built in bricks, etc.
This is how everywhere on earth looked like before the car. Also the "new world" isn't as new as Europeans seem to think. You have to remember that our societies started in the 1500s, North American societies in the 1600s, this was a long time ago.

>>214112901
The eternal anglo’s thirst for genocide extends to the erasure of history as well

>>214112849
Because it literally is, the major cities of almost all Latin American countries were founded before most American and Canadian cities.

>>214110601 (OP)
Is that a favela in the background?

>>214113251
No, it is part of the historic center, the streets are very inclined in the direction of the basilica.

>>214110601 (OP)
Yes because we have cute and breedable transgirls though~!!

I wish life was better there so they'd stop coming to my country.

browns having brownfights about their brown thirdie shitholes

>>214112930
That cathedral in the background is gigantic, basilica del voto nacional, was there a couple of years ago, very nice place

>>214112988
It It is very well preserved, but that white tower has a clearly more modern style. It belongs to the Metropolitan Cathedral of Quito, reconstructed after the ’68 earthquake; the base, however, is from the 16th century, modified Inca walls or was another nearby building

>>214110601 (OP)
We have latin America at home

Are these from a jewtube walking tour channel? Link please

>>214110601 (OP)
Personally, I prefer the more modest lvso artstyle than the overarchitectured Hispano buildings

Because it is you brainlet

>>214113498
Other buildings in Quito also incorporated new styles (French mostly) around the years of the earthquake, but usually to a much lesser extent

>>214112988
>>214113498
Why don't you tear it down? since it's the architecture of your colonizers

>>214112849
Because we don't tear down our cities to build parking lots

>>214112849
you know the spanish and portuguese founded the first cities in the americas apart from a few indigenous people, by the time england established its first permanent colony spain has been in the americas for a century already, and american cities were constantly changing, especially when the car became a widespread thing, entire city blocks were flattened to make way for streets

>>214113880
Colonial architecture is kino. Everybody knows this.

>>214113880
stfu abdoul not everybody hates their former colonial powers so much that they'll completely destroy every single trace of their former colonial power's legacy in their country and then move to their former colonial power's capital to run a shitty chinese trinket shop

>>214112849
No world wars that razed our towns and cities to the ground.
And also people don't take care of buildings, kek

>>214113880
Tourism also local hands made them

>>214114000
earthquakes do that instead lmao

>>214113880
Kek, confirmed, the Eiffel tower will be a mosque in the future

>>214113653
Other colonial buildings*
Because Quito also has many republican-era buildings like Basilica of the National Vow, seen at the background of OP's imagine, that some tourists might think are colonial

>>214110601 (OP)
>>214112584
We built this. And much more. We left 40 UNESCO World Heritage sites in America (and 2 in Filipinas).

They should be more grateful.

>>214116449
you also built universities and medical schools in the 1500s, while people here had to rely on witchdoctors, barbers, o algo, because our first medical school was built in the 1800's, after napoleon invaded portugal.
meanwhile brazilians love the portuguese (who hates us) and hispanics hate the spaniards.
go figure.

>>214116636
>hispanics hate the spaniards
Not true. There is animosity in 10% of them because comunist-populist politicians have being brainwashing them since school in the last 20-30 years. Because they are communist scum and have to do "communist things" against evil imperialism.

Just the most retarded fails for these tricks.

This is what we built in Filipinas. World Heritage. And retards call us lazy. We have worked the most in the history of mankind. No one even comes closer.

>>214112849
Brazil isn't Latam

>>214113090
>It also happened in Brazil but in smaller scale.
Nope. It happended in a much bigger scale here. You're just posting cherry picked images

>>214116449
>We built this.
i'm gonna guess ''spanish'' buildings are probably like ''portuguese'' ones, the ''spanish'' being local architects, engineers and builders

>>214116744
nice, my mistake then, but you said they "should be more grateful", so i figured out you were unpopular among hispanics

>>214116959
All the things you see in America was built by 100% ethnic genetic Spaniards (either being born in Spain or America).

>>214116987
Grateful in the sense that they should not fail to populist tricks and those that do should be grateful for the great cities that we gave them. Now the contrast is massive in the USA where the others basically built nothing relevant.

Even more the oldest buildings and most touristic in the USA were also built by Spain like San Agustin in Florida and its fort and old quarter. Or the California missiones.

Petrópolis is one of the most sovlful cities in the country IMO.

But to be fair, most of these old buildings aren't actually used anymore due to safety concerns since every one and then they end up collapsing.
The only places you see those old neo-colonial buildings being used to this day is in the northeast.

>>214112584
That church was built by the french architect in 1842

>>214112849
mexico has no money so they live in the same homes their ancestors built as colonial subjects

also, it's the same haciendas, nobles, and clergy that were set up 500 years ago and their society will never change

>>214117074
>All the things you see in America was built by 100% ethnic genetic Spaniards (either being born in Spain or America)
source?
where are those 100% ethnic genetic Spaniards today?

>>214110601 (OP)
not really

>>214117846
God damn you're stupid

>>214117845
And because americans took a ridiculous amount of time to colonize the Pacific Coast.
Seriously, fucking Lewis and Clark in the VII century? By that time Brazil was almost at it's final form.

I've never been to latin america apart from Zihuatanejo in Mexico. I've been to Barcelona and Tenerife, which I liked. I like the idea of seeing the old European-looking latin american cities with people who look vaguely white.

>>214118340
SHEIT I meant XIX century

>>214111165
>>214111257
retard moron idiot

>>214116861
Most old cities in Brazil still have a somewhat preserved historic downtown. It starts getting grim in the city of Rio (but not the whole state) and then the entire states south of Rio

>>214118448
São Paulo original city was nuked

>>214118340
>Lewis and Clark in the VII century
Lewis and Clark expedition be like

>>214118340
>>214118379
unlike spain we built a railroad there, and the railroad is where all the money comes from

angloids have no sovl

>>214112849
because when the white man came to hispanic cities of san jose, san diego, monterey etc we bulldozed them for strip malls and kmarts

now we have nvidia, which is worth more than all hispanic countries combined

>did you love this exotic part of the world?
>post pic of christcuck church #7278191
Post REAL local shit and not some building you can find in literally any fucking continent

>>214117334
i also like this one made of stones, built by the italian/german diaspora

>>214116744
Dont get fooled we hate spicniards to blood, come to prove it youself spic

>>214118521
The original São Paulo was insignificant in terms of size. Until 1900, it was simply a coffee trading hub.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-XhSf-Ovbw

Most of the historic center of São Paulo was built after 1900.

>romanticizing old car-less cities

This is ultimate masochist monkey behavior.

>>214121351
So much this. Ouro Preto and all old cities are fucking shithole for old people.

>>214121286
absolute fucking SOVL
I kneel narcobros
just think how many people died/got abducted on that same street
pure kino

>>214121351
>>214121379
just being contrarian is not replacement for an actual personality

>>214121417
Yes, for example this is a street in one of our deadliest cities

>>214121867
Are there any places in Mexico that have continued to build in that style?

>>214111165
Brazil >= Latin America and Brazil <= Latin America

>>214123744
Some towns recently integrated into the magical towns program are currently the only places that continue to build colonial-style buildings.
In the cities, these buildings are no longer built; only those that are in disrepair are rescued.

>>214111614

Holy mother of SOVL!

>>214112901
Because northern europe builds out of wood, and southern europe builds out of stone.

That and the philosophies that come with it.

I love all of our little sister countries of Latin America

>>214118521
All of São Paulo's historic cities are preserved.
The South didn't even exist. There were only a handful of missions and native people.

Source?

>>214116449
>We built this
>The Spanish colonists built the Convent of Santo Domingo on the site, demolishing the temple and using its foundations for the cathedral. They also used parts of it for other churches and residences. This is one of numerous sites where the Spanish incorporated Inca stonework into the structure of a colonial building. Major earthquakes severely damaged the church, but the Inca stone walls, built out of huge, tightly interlocking blocks of stone, still stand due to their sophisticated stone masonry.
