After wandering through a room housing models of Spain's top attractions, such as the Alhambra palace in Granada, Madrid's Royal Palace and the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral, Rojas branded the exhibition "really marvelous".

Another room is filled with global landmarks such as the Taj Mahal, London Bridge, the Statue of Liberty, Rome's Colosseum, the Parthenon in Athens, the Eiffel Tower, the Kremlin and the Old City of Jerusalem to name but a few.

"No matter how much they explain to you, you can't really get a proper image of what it's like… and that creates a lot of frustration, so the fact there are spaces like this is fantastic," said Rojas, whose eyes can only see a bit of light.
