Answer

Why is Raixa in Mallorca being criticised after its renovation?

Raixa has drawn criticism because some people feel the renovation simplified the historic estate too much and removed key landscape elements, such as the cypress lines that shaped its character. The debate is not just about appearance, but about whether the estate should be preserved as a historic villa landscape or adapted into a more practical public garden.
