Human pressure and looking at the size of the women in that photo a lot of pressure on the tarmac too!
Great Photo allway´s the same one when you want to show over crowding at the intersection where the cathedral is and the bus's wait anyway in Palma there definitely is a feeling of over crowding and there probably is but this will drop in the outlying area´s such as Playa de Muro there were definitely less people as there are still a lot of bussiness´s closed from the Corona times people will go a bit more down to the bridge too Far close to club de mar when all the work´s are done whenever that will be seem´s to be a lot of talk about lack mod funding ?
