Which instrument is this?

I was puzzled in Amberes when I saw this musician in the street playing this weird instrument. It has strings and it is played like a violin, but it has a kind of amplifier like a trumpet.

Do you know which instrument is this?

Beijing, China

In April I went to Beijing, China, to the WWW 2008 conference.

We also had time for sightseeing, for instance we went to see a part of the Great Wall, and we went to the most famous places such as the Forbidden City or Tiananmen Square. Beijing is a large, dense and polluted city with impossible traffic conditions, in which you can find thousands of interesting places and images. Link >>

Alhambra

We have been living in Barcelona for a few years now, and Granada in the south of Spain was one of the places we really wanted to visit. We finally did a few days ago, and we went to La Alhambra, an impressive group of Arab palaces from the XIII century.

In my opinion the prettiest of La Alhambra, besides the walls engraved with detailed and insanely repetitive engravings, are its beautiful gardens that contrast with the dry climate of this area. Also the city of Granada, that we visited, is very interesting.
