On the ground floor of this lovely hostal the back door has two windows on either side, looking onto the street, about 36 x 100 cm. They are special because each is made of 2 coloured glass panels.The inside one has a square standing on one corner with a yellow or blue hexagon on each edge and 4 little red triangles next to the square. The outside has a herringbone pattern with lots of small squares in the middle. Superimposing one colour over the other gives a subtle and beautiful effect. A waiter said it had been bought especially for the hostal from Gallicia 20 years ago and that double style of cristal is popular there. http://www.hoposa.es/pagespanol/hostalbahia.htm
