Cuenca November 3rd 2014

Aerial shot of Cuenca. 194 years ago today, the city declared 

its independence from the Spanish Crown. Cuenca would 

achieve full independence in 1822. The city's full name is

 Santa Ana de los Cuatro Ríos de Cuenca. It was a Spanish

 tradition to dedicate a new city in the name of a saint, in this 

case, to Santa Ana.
