Castillo Inspíración

Isla Colón


French-Canadian Robert Bezeau crafted this four-story castle from 40,000 plastic bottles. The epitome of recycling, it's one of a kind and worth a good look. His mission is to educate the public about creative options for reuse of plastics. For now the interior is only open to the public for special events but there are plans in the works for a restaurant.
