Explanation
A Maía Square has several shops and services, such as blocks of flats, cafeterias, a post office, clothing or animal shops, a bookstore, a cosmetics shop and a bazaar. It also has a few benches located throughout the square, presided over by a fountain placed in the center.
It is an important place for the inhabitants of Bertamiráns because it can be taken as a reference as the center of the town, and it is an easily accessible and well-located meeting place, since it's very close to the main street (Avenida da Maía).

Explanation
The element that we choose is a church that is located in Bertamiráns next to a pazo called Peregrina. It is a Christian building where people who believe in God go to pray. The church is made of stone with a large double door, in its facade it has a stained glass window and in the upper part a bell tower with two bells. Above this is the symbolic cross.

This church is important for the citizens of Bertamiráns because it is the place where all the believers in God meet to pay homage and ask forgiveness for their sins to Jesus. This is very important for them because in their lives this action helps them. As it is the only church in Bertamirans and its surroundings, many people gather in it every day, especially on Sundays. It is not only used to pray, but also for religious events such as weddings, baptisms or communions.

Explanation
Escollín o centro de saúde porque me parece moi interesante e ademais e o único centro de saúde que hay en Bertamiráns eu creo que e moi importante porque cando estás moi mal non che queda outro sitio que acudir que non sea o centro de saúde se non estivera o centro e estiveras moi mal a única solución sería ir a Santiago De Compostela cousa que non fai moita graza cando estás enfermo xa que solo queres estar na casiña descansando.
