Pardinyesとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Pardinyes (Catalan name; occasionally Pardiñas, in Spanish) is a neighbourhood in Lleida (Catalonia, Spain). It's a 1920s to mid-20th century urban development grown out of new architecture built on former agricultural land between Balàfia and the River Segre. It was riginally divided in Pardinyes Baixes and Pardinyes Altes, divided by the railroad tracks with the station Lleida Pirineus in the vicinity. The latter neighbourhood was initially populated by railway workers and later industrial workers, until in 1979 the freight train station was reconverted into public facilities and industry moved to other areas of the town. With some 17,000 inhabitants, it still retains a good deal of its working class, village-ish aspect.
