Welcome to Cádiz The province of Cadiz is in vogue. The fact that for many years it has remained separated from the mass tourism that has affected different areas along the Andalusian coast has facilitated the growth of a quality tourism that has respected the environment. This is not surprising, given that Cadiz is endowed with every attractive feature that a first class tourist destination needs: kilometres of beaches with transparent waters and fine golden sands framed by pine forests and endless stretches of dunes; mountain areas that have been declared a Biosphere Reserve (Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park), as well as having territory included in five other natural parks and numerous natural spaces: a unique gastronomy that draws from both sea and sierra produce, with high quality wines protected under the Jerez-Xeres-Sherry, Mazanilla de Sanlucar and Sherry Vinegar Denomination of Origin (DO); festivals of International Tourist Interest with a marked personality; towns full of protected monuments, and customs and traditions, like flamenco, whose earliest origins can in many cases be traced to the province of Cadiz. And if this were not enough, Cadiz is blessed with over 3,000 hours of sunlight each year and mild temperatures that allow visitors to take advantage of the superb surroundings, in addition to a friendly population whose warmth helps make all who come feel right at home. Come to Cadiz. Get to know us.
Between two seas Located at the southernmost point of Europe, in the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula, the natural borders of Cadiz are the provinces of Huelva, Seville and Malaga. Additionally, it borders to the south with the Straits of Gibraltar and North Africa, and its coast is bathed by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.
The many protected monuments and the rich art heritage of millenarian and aristocratic cities like Cadiz, Jerez and Sanlúcar de Barrameda are a faithful reflection of the province’s long historic evolution. Its vast cultural offer is an indication of the art that floats in the air of this land of great artists, flamenco singers, bullfighters and writers.
The province is comprised of 44 municipalities distributed through its five counties: BAHÍA DE CADIZ, CAMPO DE GIBRALTAR, BAJO GUADALQUIVIR, LA JANDA and SIERRA DE CADIZPUEBLOS BLANCOS.
The quaintness of the Pueblos Blancos (White Villages) in the mountains, with customs that have barely changed over the centuries, merges with the distinctive gastronomy that draws from both the sea and the sierra; in addition to, of course, Cadiz’s most characteristic identifying features- wines, bulls and horses- ever-present at celebrations and festivals, some of them internationally famous.
Cadiz province is perfectly connected by land, thanks to its first class road and railway network; by air, with airports in Jerez and Gibraltar that offer a wide array of national and international flights; and by sea, with two ports in the province, one located at Cadiz and another at Algeciras, the latter being a primary hub in international maritime traffic.
CLIMATE. The province is blessed with a warm climate with an average annual temperature of 18ºC and 3,100 hours of sunlight each year. Nonetheless, the microclimate of Sierra de Grazalema is characterised by high levels of rainfall, having the highest average in Spain.

Cadiz hosts, in its varied territory, a diverse array of attractions. The steep-sloped sierra and the many protected spaces - different parts of the province’s territory are included in 6 natural parks - attract nature lovers and active tourism enthusiasts. Its beaches, located along the famous Costa del Sol and Costa de la Luz, are well-established tourist destinations and a meeting place for nautical sport enthusiasts.
COAST. Along its 260 kilometres of coastline one can find from unspoilt stretches of sand to urban beaches endowed with the best in infrastructure, small coves and stretches of dunes that run for several kilometres, all bathed by transparent waters and surrounded by fine golden sands.

TAJO DE LAS FIGURAS. Located in Benalup-Casas Viejas, in the county of La Janda, this natural shelter is the site of rock paintings that place it at the head of late-Neolithic Western schematic art. The cave is open to visits in which representations of birds, quadrupeds and anthropomorphic figures can be viewed.
Founded by Tartessians and Phoenicians over 3,000 years ago, this land has been home to many different peoples attracted here by the strategic location - a bridge between Europe and Africa-, a compulsory port of call between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean.
of life of the inhabitants. They founded numerous colonies (Asido, Lascuta and others) that stretched from Campo de Gibraltar to the mouth of the River Guadalquivir. Most outstanding was the founding of Gadir (now Cadiz) in 1100 BC, the most ancient city in the Western world.
Numerous archaeological sites date human presence in the area back to prehistoric times. Of great importance are the rock paintings at Tajo de las Figuras (Benalup-Casas Viejas), Cueva del Bacinete (Los Barrios) and Laja Alta (Jimena de la Frontera).
The Phoenicians established a strong trading network and created important industries, including fishing, focused on salting and an ancient technique of fishing tuna with nets (almadraba), a technique still practiced today in the province. The Phoenician sarcophagi on exhibit at the Cadiz Museum and the Doña Blanca Castle Archaeological Site (El Puerto de Santa Maria) are also testimonies to the Phoenician presence.
Other interesting archaeological remains are those found at El Aculadero (El Puerto de Santa María), Mesas de Asta (Jerez de la Frontera), Cuevas de la Manga at Villaluenga del Rosario and the Fuente de Ramos Necropolis (Puerto Serrano). Megalithic art is widely represented in the province, with examples including the Alberite Dolmens (Villamartín), El Charcón (El Gastor) and Tomillo (Alcalá del Valle). The different peoples that colonised the Mediterranean, especially the Phoenicians, left significant marks and highly influenced the ways
As Carthaginian territory, Cadiz suffered the vicissitudes of the confrontations between Carthage and Rome during the Punic Wars and became part of the Roman Empire in 205 BC. Shipped from the port of Cadiz were wheat, olive oil, wine and “garum”, a prized fish paste produced at settlements like Baelo Claudia. The remnants left by this powerful civilization are outstanding, both in number and in quality and inclu-
BAELO CLAUDIA. Located at the inlet of Bolonia, the Plata and San Bartolomé Sierras virtually surround the site with mountains in an arch that leaves it open to the sea, its best communication route to the exterior. Founded towards the end of the 2nd century BC, it soon became a city with a certain economic force within the framework of Roman Baetica. The city reached it zenith during the 1st century AD. Its economy was centred on the industrialisation and trade in salted fish and the prized fish paste called “garum”. Visitors can see remains of its outer wall, streets, houses, salting installations, the basilica and the forum (a large 33 metre-long plaza) which is unique in its genre inside Andalusia, owing to the conservation of the pavement and to its being entirely uncovered.

de the site at Sierra de Aznar in Arcos de la Frontera, with its impressive “Castellum Aquae” and remnants of the Roman road; Cerro de la Botinera (Algodonales); and remnants of the cities of Carteia (San Roque), Ocuri (Ubrique), Iptuci (Prado del Rey), Carissa Aurelia (Espera) and Baelo Claudia (Tarifa). To these we must add the interesting Roman Theatre in the city of Cadiz. VISIGOTH PRESENCE. During the Visigoth period, the city considered to be of most importance was Medina Sidonia. In this town, one can visit the Sanctuary of Los Mártires, which is the oldest of its kind in Andalusia. Remnants of the presence of this culture can also be found in Jerez de la Frontera, Barbate (with the Sanctuary of San Ambrosio), Espera, Grazalema, Jimena de la Frontera and in Vejer de la Frontera where the Sanctuary of Nuestra Señora de la Oliva is located.
In the year 711, the troops of Tariq disembarked at the Bay of Algeciras and, after defeating King Rodrigo in the Battle of the Guadalete, began the conquest of the Iberian Peninsula and founded Algeciras, Rota and Tarifa. It was not until the mid 13th century that the Christians, under King Alfonso X The Wise, were able to seize back most of the province from the Arabs. The last cities were not recovered until the Capture of Granada in 1492. Over the centuries the landscape of Cadiz became dotted with walled enclosures, towers and fortresses that can still be admired where they stand on rocky outcroppings in such places as Zahara de la Sierra, Olvera, Castellar de la
Frontera, Arcos de la Frontera, Jimena de la Frontera and Espera or along the coast in places like Tarifa, Chiclana, Rota, Alcalá de los Gazules and Sanlúcar, among many others. Jerez de la Frontera boasts the valuable Ensemble of the Alcázar combined with the Mosque and the Arab Baths. This land also owes to the Muslims the urban layout that dominates in almost of the towns, with tortuous labyrinthine streets that adapt to the terrain, white-washed facades, an abundance of arches and flower-filled courtyards. The Gothic and Renaissance styles came onto the scene with force, leaving authentic architectural treasures like the churches of Santa María and San Pedro in Arcos de la Frontera, Santiago and San Miguel in Jerez and Santa María la Coronada in Medina Sidonia (all Gothic); and the Church of Nuestra Señora de la Victoria in Jimena, the Monastery of the Jerónimos in Bornos or the Church of San Pedro Apóstol in Benaocaz (Renaissance). With the arrival of religious orders, the number of monasteries multiplied, a good example of which is the Carthusian Monastery of Nuestra Señora de la Defensión in Jerez, which is considered the province’s most important religious monument. With the Discovery of America, the Bahía de Cadiz became the recipient of riches arriving from the New World, and important protagonists were the cities of Cadiz, Sanlucar and El Puerto de Santa Maria (here, Juan de la Cosa drew up the world’s first map including lands of the

GATEWAY TO AMERICA. In addition to the ports of the Bahía of Cadiz, an important protagonist in the New World venture was the town of Sanlucar de Barrameda, as trade merchants used the River Guadalquivir as a pathway for trade. Columbus set sail from Sanlucar on his third journey to the Americas as did Magellan and Juan Sebastian Elcano on the first trip around the world.

BATTLE OF TRAFALGAR. In the waters in front of the Lighthouse of Trafalgar, in the municipality of Barbate, the historic Battle of Trafalgar was fought in 1805 between Admiral Nelson’s English fleet and the fleets of Spain and France. This battle is considered to be the beginning of the decline of Spanish power, the point from which the country could no longer defend its interests across the sea. In the same time, the period of Great Britain’s domination of the seas began and lasted well into the 20th century, threatened only by Germany during the Second World War.
Americas in 1500). The proliferation of important monuments like the Carthusian Monastery in Jerez and the Cadiz and Jerez Cathedrals reflect the economic prosperity between the 16th and 18th centuries. Most outstanding among the works of civil architecture are the palaces and manor houses that became part of the physiognomy of these cities. Especially important are those found in the city of Cadiz, with their characteristic lookout towers from which one could watch the ships arriving to port from the New World, the House of Vizarrón in El Puerto de Santa María, the House of Marqués de Arizón in Sanlúcar de Barrameda and the Bertemati Palace in Jerez de la Frontera.
Attracted by the trade with the New World and the wine industry, there was a great influx of merchants, promoting a period of prosperity that was tarnished nevertheless by the attacks of Turkish, English and Portuguese pirates. The incursions made it necessary to reinforce the defences along the coast, and the innumerable towers, walled enclosures and strongholds that dot the entire coast of Cadiz were built. Perhaps the most emblematic of these is the fortress city of Cadiz itself, which still conserves good examples of its defensive system: the Tierra Gates, the defensive bastions of Los Mártires, La Candelaria and Capuchinos, the San Sebastián and Santa Catalina Castles and the Walls of San Carlos. With the War of the Spanish Succession and the loss of Gibraltar, new towns arose in which the people who had had to abandon the English colony settled. Such is the case of San Roque, La Linea de la Concepción and Los Barrios, whereas the town of Algeciras was repopulated. With the colonising policies of the 18th century, towns such as Prado del Rey and Algar were founded. During the Peninsular War, in 1810 the area was occupied by Napoleon’s troops whose advance was stopped at the stronghold of San Fernando. Cadiz could not be taken and became the capital of Spain and the Headquarters of the Supreme Central Junta. The Parliamentary Assembly met here and wrote the first Spanish Constitution.
10 - Cádiz and its Province
THE 1812 CONSTITUTION OF CÁDIZ. During the Peninsular War the Supreme Central Junta convoked a meeting of the Parliamentary Assembly, and, in the face of the adverse advance of the war, it was decided to take refuge in Cadiz, the only city, together with San Fernando, that had not been occupied by Napoleon’s forces. The Parliamentary Assembly were convened on 24 September, 1810 on San Fernando’s León Island, then moved to Cadiz in February of 1811. From these meetings would emerge Spain’s first Constitution, the liberal 1812 Constitution of Cadiz, which would receive the moniker of “La Pepa” as it came to light on 19 March, the feast day of St. Joseph.

The cultural panorama Birthplace to artists and writers of the stature of Manuel de Falla, Pedro Muñoz Seca, Caballero Bonald, Chipiona’s Rocío Jurado and Rafael Alberti, Cadiz has a cultural legacy that, because of its significance, has breached its borders.
RAFAEL ALBERTI (1902-1999). The most universal citizen of Puerto de Santa Maria was a central figure in the Generation of 1927 that made it possible to speak of a new Spanish Golden Age. Nominated on several occasions for the Nobel Literature Prize, he died in 1999 after having achieved critical and popular acclaim for poetry that approached all social strata. Alberti considered himself a “sailor on land” in love with the sea.
What Cadiz has to offer in museums is characterised both by quality and number. Aside from the museums with archaeological themes (Cadiz, Espera, Jerez de la Frontera, Olvera, San Fernando, San Roque, Vejer and others) are those that show the lives and oeuvre of Cadiz’s outstanding artists and writers, such as the Rafael Alberti Foundation Museum, the Cruz Herrera Museum in La Línea de la Concepción and the Luis Ortega Bru Museum in San Roque. Rounding off the extensive offer in museums are centres with themes focused round customs and traditions: Museo Barbate y la Pesca, Museo de Raíces Conileñas, Museo Taurino ‘Paquiro’ in Chiclana, Museo ‘José María El Tempranillo’ in El Gastor, and the Museos de Enganche, Taurino y Arte Ecuestre in Jerez, in addition to the Museo Naval de San Fernando in San Fernando and the Museo Barbadillo de la Manzanilla in Sanlúcar. Due to the province’s historic and artistic heritage, it forms part of important cultural routes that pass through Andalusia, such as the Almoravid and Almohad Route included within the Andalusi Legacy Routes, or the Roman Baetica Route that runs through what was the
12 - Cádiz and its Province
southernmost province of Roman Hispania and includes territories through which the ancient Via Augusta passed. In addition to the cultural programmes of the Falla and Villamarta Theatres in Cadiz and Jerez respectively, and the “Juan Luis Galiardo” Theatre in San Roque, are the numerous literary contests, dance and theatre programmes, music conferences and concerts that are held throughout the province of Cadiz, in which flamenco is afforded a very important place. Among the most popular events are the Flamenco Dance Festival in Jerez, the Comedy Theatre Festival in El Puerto de Santa María, organised each summer by the Pedro Muñoz Seca Foundation; the City of Sanlúcar Jazz Festival and the ‘A Orillas del Guadalquivir’ International Music Festival, both in Sanlúcar; and the Alcances Film Festival of the Atlantic in Cadiz, which is one of Andalusia’s oldest cultural events and holds fourth place within the framework of film dissemination in Spain, after the San Sebastián, Valladolid and Gijón film festivals.
CÁDIZ MUSEUM. Most outstanding in the archaeology section is the Phoenician collection, including the man’s sarcophagus, discovered in 1887, and the woman’s sarcophagus. The fine arts section exhibits an interesting evolution of Spanish painting from the 16th century to the first half of the 20th century. The collection of paintings is one of Spain’s most important. In the Ethnographic section can be found the Los Títeres de Tía Norica, an interesting example of the customs and manners of Cadiz over recent centuries.

Costa de la Luz and Costa del Sol The coast of Cadiz includes two very important names in the tourist industry: 60 kilometres of the Costa del Sol that run from Tarifa to Punta Chullera (near Sotogrande), bathed by the waters of the Mediterranean; and the Costa de la Luz, 200 kilometres that extend from the mouth of the River Guadalquivir in Sanlucar to Tarifa, bathed by crystalline Atlantic waters. A total of 260 kilometres of coastline and over 80 beaches bathed in an astonishing sunlight and surrounded by fine golden sands. The quality of the beaches has made many of them worthy of the Blue Flag in Europe’s Clean Seas programme. The main attraction of Cadiz beaches is the pristine state of most of the coastline, with a large number of idyllic coves and stretches of sand with a wild look, situated between cliffs and stunningly beautiful natural areas. Good examples of these are Coto Beach (Sanlúcar),
14 - Cádiz and its Province
Punta Candor (Rota), Levante (El Puerto de Santa María), El Puerco (Chiclana de la Frontera), Zahora, Caños de Meca and Zahara de los Atunes in Barbate, the coves of Conil, El Palmar Beach (Vejer de la Frontera), Bolonia and Valdevaqueros (Tarifa) and Torrecarbonera in San Roque. Many of these are ideal for practicing nudism. In addition to these are other more urbanised beaches, endowed with magnificent services and infrastructures, with more of a family atmosphere like Bajo de Guía (Sanlúcar), Regla in Chipiona, La Costilla (Rota), La Caleta and La Victoria (Cadiz), Valdelagrana (El Puerto), La Barrosa (Chiclana), Los Bateles (Conil), Los Lances (Tarifa) and El Rinconcillo (Algeciras). EXCLUSIVE HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS. In the nearby surroundings of some Cadiz beaches, luxurious housing developments have been built, with hotels, marinas, golf courses, shopping centres and more. Most outstanding are Costa Ballena (between Chipiona and Rota), Vistahermosa (El Puerto), Novo Sancti Petri in Chiclana (ideal for golf enthusiasts), Atlanterra (Zahara de los Atunes), La Alcaidesa (La Línea de la Concepción) and Sotogrande (San Roque).

Paraíso natural Over twenty protected natural spaces (including 6 natural parks) are found in the province of Cadiz, shaping the region into a large environmental reserve, with very distinct ecosystems and providing habitats for valuable animal and plant species. The Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, is blessed with a specific microclimate (its level of rainfall is the highest in the Iberian Peninsula) that plays a primary role both in the area’s rich diversity in plant and animal life and in its unique morphology. Its greatest treasure is the Spanish fir tree, a relict fir species from the Tertiary period that survived the ice ages. THE SPANISH FIR. Growing in the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, thanks to its special microclimate, is the Spanish fir. A relict from the Tertiary Period, the tree is found only in Western Europe and is native to Sierra de Ronda. Located in the shade of Sierra del Pinar, between Grazalema and Benamahoma, is a magnificent Spanish fir forest, currently the best conserved of its kind.
Sierra de Grazalema is the province’s highest and steepest mountain chain, with caves, deep fissures and caverns that display the landscape’s karstic character. One of Europe’s largest colonies of Eurasian griffons vultures can be found here as well as one of the largest colonies of cave bats on the European continent (at the Hundidero-Gato Complex). Known as “Europe’s Virgin Forest”, the Alcornocales Natural Park boasts the most extensive cork oak forest to be found on the Iberian Peninsula, and one of the largest in the world. The park includes exceptional gallery forests that transport visitors to a subtropical climate that currently does not exist in
other parts of Europe. These sierras shelter a rich diversity of birds of prey, with a total of 18 species having been counted. Those best adapted to this type of forest are the Booted eagle, the Short-toed eagle, the Common buzzard, goshawks, the Sparrow hawk and the Tawny owl. The El Estrecho Natural Park, Europe’s southernmost protected park, is a key point in the migration of birds between Europe and Africa. Important features are the undersea karstic formations, the potholes at Punta Camarinal, the Quaternary dunes and the coastal beaches. This protected space has a high level of diversity and a large number of natural habitats designated to be of Community Importance. The Breña and Barbate Marshes Natural Park is located along a strip of coastline with cliffs and clear coastal waters, to the southeast of the province of Cadiz in the municipalities of Vejer de la Frontera and Barbate and thus constitutes a land and sea park. It boasts one of the most outstanding landscapes found
16 - Cádiz and its Province
DOÑANA, A WORLD HERITAGE SITE. Cadiz province forms part of this Natural Park and Biosphere Reserve through the municipality of Sanlúcar de Barrameda. The Algaida Pine Forest and the Bonanza Marshes are located here. A superb example of Mediterranean wetlands, Doñana is Europe’s largest environmental reserve and its huge expanse of wetlands is home to numerous species of aquatic birds. The vital importance of this protected natural area stems from the diversity of ecosystems (marshes, live dunes, cotos [stabilised dunes], beaches, veras [where sands meet marshes], and more). As to fauna, the park gives shelter to a wide array of species, the most valuable being the Spanish Imperial eagle and the Iberian lynx (endangered species).
Cádiz and its Province- 17
on Cadiz’s Atlantic coast, with impressive cliffs that can rise up over 100 metres high, such as those found at Tajo Tower and Caños de Meca. In some places, springs of potable water flow down into small coves, imparting a rich variety to the landscape.
CONTRASTING LANDSCAPES. Along the coast, one’s gaze becomes lost amidst the beaches and wild coves below the marvellous cliffs, some with springs spilling down that have bored through the rock. In many places pine groves reach down to the beaches or cling to the cliffs. Landscapes of endless dunes, looking somehow unreal, seemingly transport us to exotic places. The marshes and wetlands boast a mysterious beauty, with spectacular sunsets against which the silhouettes of fishing boats float. The wide expanses of rolling vineyards are only interrupted by the whiteness of the farmhouses. Spanish fir forests, hundreds of years old, their tops sprinkled white with snow. Immense rock formations with capricious shapes. Unending sierras outlined against the blue sea and the African continent beyond.
18 - Cádiz and its Province
Situated at the entrance to the Straits of Gibraltar, the park provides support to the migratory routes of the marshes at Barbate, a town that boasts the province’s largest extension of Stone pine forest. The Bahía de Cadiz Natural Park is located on a large estuary and its geographical location- between Doñana and the Straits of Gibraltar- makes it an especially important point in the migratory bird routes of a multitude of birds flying between Europe and Africa. It is a meeting place for marine and land environments and owing to the easy circulation of the waters, available sunlight and abundance of nutrients, a wide diversity of species has been established, including molluscs, crustaceans, fish and aquatic birds.
The natural reserves of the province of Cadiz are primarily highly valuable wetlands of great interest, acknowledged as areas of international importance for birdlife. Such is the case of the Endorheic Complexes of Espera, Puerto Real, Chiclana and El Puerto de Santa María, in addition to Las Canteras and El Tejón Pond and Medina Pond. The Peñón de Zaframagón Natural Reserve, located in the last foothills of the Sierra de Grazalema, gives shelter to the largest nesting colony of Eurasian griffons vultures in Western Andalusia, and one the largest on the Iberian Peninsula. The Bornos and Arcos Reservoir Wetlands, the River Palmones Marshes, Los Lances Beach (Tarifa), the Estuary of the River Guadiaro, Trocadero Island (Puerto Real) and the Sancti Petri Marshes in Chiclana de la Frontera make up the rest of the natural areas that comprise the rich environmental heritage of the province of Cadiz.
NATURAL MONUMENTS. In Barbate is a small sandstone island called Tómbolo de Trafalgar that boasts archaeological remains. San Fernando boasts Punta del Boquerón and Rota the traditional “Corrales, a group of structures on the intertidal strip on the beaches of Rota and Chipiona relating to a traditional form of fishing dating back to Roman times. The Dune of Bolonia is an active dune, 30 metres high, located at the Punta Camarinal isthmus on the south-Atlantic coast of Cadiz, close to Baelo Claudia.
The coexistence of heterogeneous ecosystems, such as cliffs, beaches, dunes, ponds, mudflats, marshes and estuary, invites visitors to contemplate both the landscape and the diversity of associated fauna, mainly birdlife. A few enclaves of natural marshes have been preserved almost intact: Los Toruños Marshes, the Sancti Petri Marshes and the marshes located on Trocadero Island.

Unique character Few elements have undergone so little change over the course of the centuries as the urban features of the towns of Cadiz and the artisan craftwork made by its people. They are thus an inseparable part of the unique character of this land. The popular architecture in Cadiz is as picturesque as it is diverse. The Andalusi-style urban layout predominates in the towns of the province, especially in those of the Sierra de Cadiz, with their narrow labyrinthine streets, arches, white-washed houses and lush courtyards filled with flowering plants.
LA ALMADRABA. A netfishing technique known as “la almadraba”- from an Arab word meaning “to strike or fight”- is an ancient fishing technique used to capture tuna that was introduced to the area by the Phoenicians. It is practiced in spring when fisherman take advantage of the migration of tuna as the fish journey to the warmer waters of the Mediterranean to spawn. The technique consists of laying a labyrinth of nets to the centre of a school of tuna. Then the fishermen raise the nets to the surface of the water and catch the fish with gaffs and hooks.
The particular lay of the land has also influenced the unique architecture found in the province, as in the case of the towns built on different levels, or the houses built on or inside of rock formations. The best example of this is found at Setenil de las Bodegas. The whitewashed houses, seaside villages, gathered beneath a lighthouse and facing the sea, whose ports and fish markets are complemented, in the countryside, by the traditional houses of the vine-growers in Rota, the large farmhouses where the famous fighting bulls are bred, and the watermills, windmills and waterwheels that dot the countryside. The saltpan houses, the huts and the tidal mills -traditional architectural structures in the Marshes- together with the cities that owe much of their current appearance to the area’s wine-making traditions (Jerez de la Frontera,
El Puerto de Santa María and Sanlúcar de Barrameda) bring this section on the rich diversity of architecture in Cadiz to a close. As to arts and crafts, while very traditional crafts are still practiced in all their purity, such as harness making in Jerez and towns in the sierra, Cadiz is characterised as well by a completely renovated crafts industry, like that found at Ubrique and its fine leather goods trade. Currently, Ubrique is where the largest number of fine leather-working shops are located in Europe. Primary world-class brands, such as Loewe, Cartier, Dunhill, Christian Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, Pierre Balmain and Nina Ricci have placed their trust in the quality of the products made with sheep, goat and cow skins by the leather craftspeople of Ubrique. A large part of the town’s production is exported to the rest of Europe, the US, Australia, Canada and Japan through the aforementioned firms or through Ubrique’s own brands, the latter being a major field of future development for the town. Together with these two models, traditional and innovative, in the crafts trade, other crafts maintain their continuity. Most worthy of mention are Sanlucar de Barrameda’s Englishstyle cabinet making, crafts relating to carnival, fishing and wine-making (cask making in Jerez) traditions, cork crafts in the area around Los Alcornocales, the blankets of Grazalema, the guitars of Algodonales, the bagpipes of El Gastor and the famous dolls of Chiclana.
20 - Cádiz and its Province
CORK HARVESTING. Cork was and continues to be one of the economic foundations of many towns in Cadiz province. The large number of cork oaks growing in Los Alcornocales Natural Park has fostered the trade of cork harvesting, which is carried out every 9 or 10 years on each tree. The forest also provides for another tradition in Cadiz, mushroom harvesting. Due to the climate, mushroom harvesting lasts from October to March.
Cádiz and its Province - 21
Something for every taste Cuisine in Cadiz is as rich and varied as the land itself which supplies first class ingredients. This is apparent in the province’s four Denominations of Origin: “Brandy de Jerez”, “Jerez-Xeres-Sherry, Manzanilla Sanlúcar de Barrameda and Vinagre de Jerez”, “Aceites Sierra de Cadiz” and “Alfajor de Medina Sidonia”.
WINES AND OLIVE OILS. The superb wines from the Jerez Region, aside from accompanying meals, are the indisputable protagonists of most dishes, affording them a distinctive and flavourful touch, as does the magnificent olive oil produced in the province. And when speaking of wine in capital letters, one must refer to the most international of the wines of Cadiz, sherry, and from the Jerez Region, manzanilla, produced mainly in Sanlucar. In addition to the Jerez-XeresSherry DO already mentioned, not to be forgotten are the young wines that have recently appeared on the scene, white and slightly fruity, that are making their way onto Spanish tables. These wines are very smooth and drinkable and most come from the towns of Sanlucar and Arcos de la Frontera.
Cadiz’s gastronomy combines ingredients from the sea, countryside and sierra. From the vegetable gardens come fresh gazpacho, green salad and “piriñaca” salad, in addition to delicious dishes like artichokes with peas and marinated potatoes. On the coast, fish and shellfish play the leading role. Redbanded sea bream, sole, gilthead, red mullet, wedge sole and meagre can be savoured grilled or in exquisite seafood stews: Rota-style redbanded sea bream, meagre with peas, cuttlefish with potatoes, tuna with onions, stuffed squid, dogfish with tomato, and many more. Not to be forgotten are “Almadraba” tuna, delicious salted fish and, of course, Cadiz’s famous fried fish. The famous Sanlúcar scampi, giant scarlet prawns, razor clams, grass shrimp, clams and coquina clams are savoured in rice dishes and seafood stews, shellfish soups, or, as in the batter-dipped grass shrimp, fried. Other provincial specialties include sea urchins, elvers in garlic sauce, and skewered sardines. Inland specialties come from products that grow wild in the countryside, like asparagus,
golden thistle, mushrooms and white Italian and milk snails. From these, dishes such as garlic, asparagus and tomato soups are made, or scrambled-egg dishes and milk snails in piquant sauces. Succulent casseroles and stews are made both on the coast and inland, most notable being the bean, sausage and vegetable stews, bull’s tail, chickpea stew, and cod with potato. Rice dishes and stews are made with large and small game (partridge, roe and red deer, rabbit, pheasant and wild boar). From the tradition of rural pig butchering come exquisite sausages, cracklings and pork loin in lard. And one must not forget the handmade cheeses of the sierra to accompany the wonderful native meats: Iberico pork and Retinto beef.
SWEETS AND DESERTS. To sweeten up your day, nothing better than confections with an Arab legacy or inherited from convents: custards, Medina Sidonia almond-honey “alfajores”, Cadiz’s almond nougat, fried dough, pine nut and sugar sweet, rice pudding, “torrijas” toast, and honey-covered fried “pestiños”.
These delectable delights can be savoured at fine restaurants, at outside terraces by the sea or along seaside promenades while looking out over the ocean, served as small tapas to sample a bit of everything; or inland at picturesque spots and the famous ventas (roadside restaurants).

Flamenco
JOSÉ MONGE “CAMARÓN DE LA ISLA” (1950-1992). Born in San Fernando, this singer dominated flamenco for several decades in the late 20th century. He revolutionised the world of flamenco with his personal style, recreating the traditional varieties of flamenco singing and incorporating new trends open to popular contemporary music. His powerful influence is noticeable today in every field, from flamenco to the fusion developed by young singers.
24 - Cádiz and its Province
The province of Cadiz is a landmark in the world of flamenco. Mother of the “cantiñas”, a name under which different types of flamenco singing are gathered, like the “alegrias”, “romera”, “mirabrás” and “caracoles”. Cadiz was also responsible for the “there and back” styles that came from Latin America through the port of Cadiz, and the “tanguillos”, in addition to creating “tangos” together with Triana. Birthplace to flamenco singers, dancers and guitarists who have made of flamenco a universal art. San Fernando was home to Camarón, and Chipiona to Rocío Jurado. And from Sanlúcar came Manolo Sanlúcar, who together with Paco de Lucia and Serranito comprise the magic triangle of flamenco guitar. And from Jerez, equally worth mentioning are La Paquera de Jerez, José Mercé, El Capullo de Jerez, La Macanita and Manuel Morao, among others. Many gypsies came to Jerez de la Frontera and its countryside in search of work. These circumstances favoured the coming of flamenco over two centuries ago. One of the town’s quarters is perhaps the most deeply steeped in flamenco culture in the world: the Santiago quarter where they sing bulerias and dance as nowhere else, or the San Miguel quarter, birthplace to Manuel Torre and Lola Flores. The town is home to the Andalusian Flamenco Art Centre and the Flamencology Chair. In Cadiz, a city that has always assimilated everything that arrived from outside, the “colombiana” flamenco came into being thanks to Pepa de Oro. This was also where the classic flamenco rumbas arose, from the voices of Pericón de Cadiz and Chano Lobato.
But flamenco is felt deeply in all of the province’s towns. It emerges everywhere and at any time, at parties, flamenco associations and at festivals, some of which are highly acclaimed. Amongst the most famous are the Buleria Festival and Flamenco Dance Festival (both in Jerez), the Nights at Bajo de Guía event in Sanlucar de Barrameda, the Arranque Roteño event, the Peteneras Flamenco Singing National Contest in Paterna de la Rivera, the National Flamenco Competition in San Fernando, the Serranas Flamenco Singing National Contest in Prado del Rey and the La Segur Flamenco Night in Vejer de la Frontera, declared a Festival of National Tourist Interest. Completing the festival calendar are the Flamenco Nights in Algar, Grazalema, Puerto Serrano, Villamartín and Vejer and the Flamenco Thursdays in Cadiz. There is an aura of flamenco at the fairs, in the sacred Easter Week “saeta” songs, in Christmas carols and rustic “zambomba” drums, at spectacular flamenco associations and shows, and, with luck, in the streets, any day, anytime, anyplace, because, here, flamenco rhythm and beat comes from deep within.
ROUTES THROUGH FLAMENCO TERRITORY. The province of Cadiz is part of the itinerary of two of the Andalusian Regional Government’s Flamenco Territories Routes. The Compás del Tres por Cuatro “Los Cantes Básicos” Route, that goes through Jerez, gives an account of the importance of the flamenco singing and singers that brought about such root forms of flamenco as the “soleá” and the “bulería”. The aim of the Bajañi Route, that leads from Algeciras to Sanlúcar de Barrameda, passing through Jerez, is to show the origins of flamenco guitar. Although the creational essence of flamenco guitar is rather scattered through the area of a scalene triangle whose vertices point towards Madrid, Jerez and Almeria- in other words, to Ramón Montoya, Maestro Patiño and Julián Arcas- the framework within which “bajañi” has evolved in recent years does not reach beyond the coast of Cadiz.

Horse and Bull The equestrian tradition of the province of Cadiz goes back 3,000 years; the Tartessians made references to this superb animal. But it was the founding of the Carthusian Monastery in Jerez in the 15th century in Jerez de la Frontera that would mark a milestone in the history of the horse in Cadiz. The monks devoted themselves to breeding horses using magnificent studs that they would take to pasture at the Alto Cielo dehesa, and arising from their breeding techniques came the famous Carthusian breed. The Yeguada de la Cartuja - Hierro del Bocado Stud, located in the Dehesa de la Fuente, very near the Carthusian Monastery, holds the largest and most important stock of Carthusian horses in the world. THE ROYAL ANDALUSIAN SCHOOL OF EQUESTRIAN ART. Headquartered in Jerez de la Frontera, this foundation sponsors Equestrian Fantasy inside its incomparable Recreo de las Cadenas building, designed by French architect Charles Garnier. The show is an equestrian ballet in which rider, horse and music merge together, creating a magical performance.
Jerez de la Frontera was able to emerge as the Spanish capital of horse breeding due to the labours of the large number of stock farms and studs in breeding and selecting horses, as well to the many different festivals whose main protagonist is the horse: The Jerez Horse Fair, declared a Festival of International Tourist Interest, the big horse parade and the Ancades International Jumping Event held during the Autumn Festivals. Its equestrian traditions and experience in organising all different types of equestrian events led Jerez to be chosen as the venue for the 4th World Equestrian Games in 2002. Another way for visitors to approach the world of horses is to see them in their natural
environment or participate in the riding-school and fighting bull testing exhibitions held at a large number of farms and country estates. There is a wide array of options that horse lovers can choose from, including sport competitions, shows, carriage exhibitions, “acoso y derribo” (pursuit and felling of fighting cattle), dressage, conformation competitions and riding schools. The bull has always held a special deep significance in the province. The most prestigious fighting bull stock farms (such as Torrealta, Torrestrella, Jandilla and Marqués de Domecq) are pastured at the province’s dehesas. Many have opened their doors to tourism and offer visitors the opportunity to become acquainted with this noble animal in its natural environment and to witness the work involved in their upkeep and care, which has preserved the brave fierceness of the breed since ancient times. Scattered through the province are many prestigious bullrings in which, especially during fairs, fighting bulls are fought. Most outstanding is El Puerto de Santa Maria’s legendary bullring, where the famous summer Bullfighting Fair is held. The fighting bull is also the protagonist of other festivities: running the bulls to the pens, rural pilgrimages, festivities with firehorned bulls in Vejer de la Frontera, the Easter “aleluya” bull run in Paterna de Rivera, and the “tied bulls” run in Alcalá de los Gazules.
26 - Cádiz and its Province
ROUTE OF THE BULL. This itinerary is an invitation to become acquainted with the life of this animal in its natural environment as well as with the selection techniques applied to perpetuate the fighting bull breed. Jerez de la Frontera (birthplace of bullfighter Rafael de Paula) is the starting point for this route that runs through the Campiña and ends at the Campo de Gibraltar. The towns along this itinerary are Paterna de Rivera, Medina Sidonia, Benalup-Casas Viejas, Alcalá de los Gazules, Los Barrios, Castellar, Jimena, San Roque and Tarifa. Visits to some of the many stock farms in the area are a must when taking this route. A perfect complement would be to go to any of the many bullfighting festivals that take place in the province, whether in legendary bullrings or in the streets of some of the towns.

Practice your swing The choice of the province’s golf courses as venues for tournaments of the stature of the Ryder Cup or the Volvo Masters has meant international acknowledgement of Cadiz as one of Europe’s finest golf vacation destinations. The magnificent climate affords golfers the opportunity to enjoy this sport all year round. In addition to the diversity of the landscapes of Cadiz’s 22 golf courses is the quality of the facilities. Many of these have welcomed the presence of grand masters like Severiano Ballesteros, Nick Faldo, Tiger Woods, Colin Montgomerie and Sergio García. Some, such as R. Trent Jones and Jack Nicklaus have left a permanent record by stamping their signature and design on fairways. ARCOS GARDENS GOLF CLUB & COUNTRY STATE

Marinas The province of Cadiz’s coastline offers boating enthusiasts the opportunity to enjoy an impressive infrastructure. Situated in strategic locations, a total of eight marinas and a dozen yacht clubs are dotted along the Cadiz coast. Provided with modern installations and excellent services, from some of the marinas boats can set sail for the continent of Africa, a distance of just 14 km away at the nearest point. Prestigious competitions are held at the Bahía de Cadiz, including the International Nautical Week, counting towards the Spanish Championships, and the Juan de la Cosa Regatta, both at El Puerto de Santa Maria. In 2000 the capital city of Cadiz was the venue for the prestigious Tall Ships Regatta.

For the most active visitors Cadiz allows visitors to practice an endless number of sport and leisure-time activities, with the sea and the sierra providing the most exciting experiences.
FOR MOTOR SPORTS ENTHUSIASTS. The Jerez Circuit (Circuito Permanente de Velocidad de Jerez), hosts the Spanish Grand Prix year after year, counting towards the World Motorcycle Championships, in addition to other international events. Also very popular in the province are the rallys, intensely experienced in competitions such as the Subida a Algar Rally, the Subida a los Remedios Rally, the Subida a Vejer Rally, the Sierra de Cadiz Rally and the Subida “Ubrique Legítimo” Rally.
The province’s 260 km of coastline are the best surroundings for practicing water sports. The transparent waters and the rich sea bed make an immense pleasure of scuba diving and undersea fishing, which can be practiced at night or in archeologically rich areas (wreckage). Good fishing from the beach and from boats is guaranteed. The sierra allows visitors to practice a wide array of activities that range from hill-walking through Los Alcornocales and Sierra de Grazalema Natural Parks, mountain-biking, walking, or horse-riding (Vía Verde de la Sierra Greenway), to riskier sports like mountain climbing, rock climbing or pot-holing (the Villaluenga, Republicano and Cacao Fissures, Travesía Hundidero-Gato) and canyoning (Garganta Verde and Garganta de las Buitreras). Large and small game is abundant, with over 60 hunting reserves.
In addition to all this, the Sierra de Cadiz offers perfect conditions for air sports, corroborated by the World Air Games hosted by Algodonales in 2001, and has numerous areas for free-flying: Sierra de Abarracín (close to Benamahoma), Puerto de las Palomas, Sierra de Líjar, and more. The Campo de Gibraltar is one of Europe’s primary enclaves for cetacean and bird-watching. Its proximity to Africa, the confluence of the Atlantic and the Mediterranean and the wide array of habitats fostered by the climate have all made the area a compulsory point of passage for the millions of birds that cross over to Africa in search of better climate conditions. The MIGRES Foundation manages a Volunteer Programme for monitoring the Migration through the Straits (the Migres Programme), promoted by the Regional Government of Andalusia. Any amateur ornithologist can participate in this programme between the months of June and November in the area around Tarifa.
THE REALM OF WINDSURFING. Enthusiasts of action water sport will find the beaches of Ensenada de Valdevaqueros and Los Lances in Tarifa to be Europe’s windsurfing capital. Windsurfers gather here for the year-long mild climate, fantastic waves and strong east wind. Aside from watching the windsurfers, one can watch those who prefer to practice surfing, or other newer water sports like kitesurfing, bodyboarding, flysurfing or blokarting (sailing over the sand). Today Tarifa has become a small cosmopolitan centre, where English is used as a lingua franca, and where devotees of these fun sports show off their tans, muscles and skills. There are a large number of specialised shops catering to these activities, almost all run by the expat community.
With respect to cetaceans, it is quite a show to sail between the two continents watching the schools of these beautiful animals in their natural environment. The large females plow through the waters with their calves and follow the fishing boats for any tuna that might be had. Amongst the cetaceans that can be spotted are different species of dolphins, pilot whales, sperm whales, killer whales, and toothless fin whales, belonging to the same family as the blue whale.

Festivals The annual calendar of festivals in the province of Cadiz is brimming with compulsory dates, events at which visitors who submerge themselves in the characteristic festive atmosphere of celebration will not be left indifferent.
FESTIVALS OF NATIONAL TOURIST INTEREST • Corpus Christi, ZAHARA DE LA SIERRA. • Corpus Christi, EL GASTOR. • Exaltation of the Guadalquivir, SANLÚCAR DE BARRAMEDA. • Cattle Fair and Festival, San Mateo, VILLAMARTÍN. • Feria del Carmen y de la Sal, SAN FERNANDO. • Royal Fair, ALGECIRAS. • Urta Festival, ROTA. • Festival in honour of the Patron Santísimo Cristo de la Antigua, ESPERA. • Flamenco Night, La Segur, VEJER DE LA FRONTERA. • Easter Week, ARCOS DE LA FRONTERA, JEREZ DE LA FRONTERA, SETENIL DE LAS BODEGAS, SAN ROQUE, ALCALÁ DEL VALLE, SANLÚCAR DE BARRAMEDA, SAN FERNANDO Y ESPERA. • Veladas y Fiestas, LA LÍNEA DE LA CONCEPCIÓN.
The Carnival of Cadiz (declared of International Tourist Interest) has become an established tradition; the city’s earliest carnivalesque manifestations began to develop centuries ago. The phenomenon of visiting merchants from Genoa, Venice and France bringing with them masks and outfits to attend dances, combined on the streets of Cadiz with the rhythms of Cuban “guajiras”, “habaneras” and “guarachas” that were sung and performed by crews from ships docked at the port, giving rise to what we know today as the carnival. The Cadiz Carnival Associations’ Contest, held in the Falla Theatre, attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors over a period of 20 days each year. Easter Week is another pillar of celebration in the province. The streets of aristocratic cities, mountain towns and seaside villages are filled with floats carried in procession by “costaleros” and accompanied by special band music and the sacred songs sung with religious fervour to images of Christ and the Virgin Mary. Held in May, at González Hontoria Park, is the famous Jerez Horse Fair, boasting over 200 tents and a grandiose Horse Parade, a unique spectacle in which hundreds of riders, men in Spanish riding clothes and women in flamenco
dresses, together with beautiful carriages, parade through the fairgrounds. The Corpus Christi Celebration, of special interest in Zahara de la Sierra and El Gastor, precedes the popular Virgen del Carmen sea pilgrimage held in July. All of the coastal towns hold seaside processions with their sacred images, and plow the waters in festively decorated boats.
FESTIVALS OF INTERNATIONAL TOURIST INTEREST •Carnival, CÁDIZ. •Horse Fair, JEREZ DE LA FRONTERA. • Horse Races on the beach, SANLÚCAR DE BARRAMEDA.
The Horse Races held on the beach in Sanlucar de Barrameda are another landmark on the provincial calendar of festivals. Held on two different weekends in the month of August, the races have been ongoing for over 150 years on the town’s beaches, with the superb Coto de Doñana as a background. According to popular tradition, the origin of the event stems from the racing of the fishmongers as they vied to reach the fish auctions first, although it was the arrival of summer holiday makers in the 19th century, wanting to organise fun activities to brighten their holiday, when the races started to turn into the sports event we see today.

Bahía de Cádiz Cadiz and its counties The province of Cadiz consists of five counties each with their own individual appeal which makes them top rate tourist centres. If the Sierra de Cadiz, with its picturesque, regional character, is the ideal area for rural tourism, the beaches are the feature uniting La Janda, the Bahía de Cádiz, El Campo de Gibraltar and the Bajo Guadalquivir. And each of these regions, without exception, boast a wealth of landscapes, ancestral history, a legacy of monuments and archaeological treasures without equal, precious, natural areas, a wide range of settings for active tourism, delicious cuisine with quality products, and deeprooted traditions such as flamenco music, bulls and horses.
36 - Cádiz and its Province
Cádiz The “Tacita del Plata” is considered the oldest city in the Western World. It was founded (in 1100 B.C.) by the Phoenicians, a seafaring people who turned Gadir into an important trading colony where the Carthaginians, the Romans, the Visigoths and the Muslims would all subsequently settle. An open, cosmopolitan city, it sport was chosen by Columbus as the point of departure for his second voyage to the New World. The city would then become, after the decline of Seville, the port to The Indies, drawing the flow of trade with the American Continent. This frantic commercial activity then brought about an era of economic, cultural splendour, when Baroque palaces with their characteristic towers offering amazing views were built. The Cathedral, which can be seen from the sea, and its golden tiled dome fit perfectly into the Cadiz cityscape with its colonial air. It combines both the Baroque and Neoclassical styles, and its treasure is amongst the most important in Spain. The intense trading activity with The Indies awakened the greedy interest of pirates, which led to the city being fortified. The remains of the original although renovated cross-fire defence system designed by Vauban make up an important part of the heritage of Cadiz. Las Puertas de Tierra, the city gates, retain sections of walls and semi-bastions such as those of San Roque and Santa Elena, on both sides. A stroll
through the Campo del Sur affords the visitor a view of the Los Mártires and Capuchinos defence bastions, by La Caleta, which is guarded by San Sebastián and Santa Catalina Castles. Heading towards the boulevard Alameda Apodaca, the La Candelaria Bastion and the San Carlos Walls can also be seen. The Puertas de Tierra Walls clearly divide the new city regained from the sea –built along a great avenue and along the extensive, landscaped promenade– and the old. The historic centre of the city has narrow streets and small squares in popular districts such as La Viña – the fisherman’s district - the Mentidero, Santa María (true home of flamenco song) and El Pópulo.
THE LA VIÑA QUARTER. This is the traditional Cadiz quarter par excellence, and its welcoming, friendly atmosphere is the inspiration for many carnival song lyrics. The perfect setting to try the typical dish of mackerel with ‘piriñaca’ (a tomato and pepper salad), the district meets the sea at La Caleta, which is the most representative of the city’s beaches and stretches for 3 km along the coast (Santa María del Mar, Cortadura and La Victoria).
THE ROMAN CITY OF
GADES. The splendour of Gades has been preserved in the form of the Roman Theatre (first century B.C.) in the Pópulo district. Built under the initiative of the Roman-Cadiz family the Balbos, it was discovered in 1980 and is currently considered one of the greatest buildings of this type in Spain.
38 - Cádiz and its Province

HAVANA IS CADIZ. A stroll along the Cadiz sea front, from La Caleta to the Campo del Sur, will remind the visitor of the image of the avenue the Malecón in Havana, as there are many similarities between Cadiz and Latin American cities, thanks to the constant flow of people travelling between Cadiz and the New World. The cathedral in Cadiz is a good example of this influence, as are several of the manor houses and the towers with their views which grew up in the midst of old Gadir’s cityscape during the expansion into America.
The El Pópulo District, which is the oldest in the city, retains the three gates to the original Medieval city: the El Pópulo, De la Rosa and De los Blancos Arches, apart from the Roman Theatre and the one-time Cathedral, Santa Cruz Church. The emblematic Plaza de San Juan de Dios is the place to savour the typical “pescaíto frito” fried fish, while listening to Cadiz composer Manuel de Falla’s Amor Brujo played by the City Hall Clock. The neighbouring quarter of Santa María is one of districts with most history in the city, with stately residences such as the Baroque Casa Lasquetty and the Royal Jail, an important Neoclassical building. Walking up towards the quiet San Francisco Square, we find La Santa Cueva, The Holy Cave, with Goya paintings inside. Nearby the Plaza de San Antonio, in the Mentidero Quarter, which was the nervous centre of the city for many years, there is the Oratory of San Felipe Neri, a Baroque place of worship which has an Inmaculada by the painter Murillo on the main altar. This was the seat of the Cadiz Cortes in 1812, where the first Spanish Constitution was drawn up and nicknamed “la Pepa” thanks to its conception date (Saint Joseph’s Day).
Calle Zorrilla, the tapa-bar street par excellence, leads to the Alameda Apodaca Gardens and the Genovés Park, which offer perfect views of the sea. Continuing to stroll a little further round, the visitor comes to Cadiz port, regular stopping-off point for tourist cruise ships travelling between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic.
CARNIVAL AND THE FALLA THEATRE. The Falla Theatre draws thousands of people for over 20 days, as it is host to the Cadiz Carnival Groups Competition. Carnival, which has been declared of International Tourist Interest, is the city’s most important festival. The entire population dons fancydress and heads for the street to take part in the fun, the laughter and the partying in the midst of the choral groups, the satirical ‘chirigotas’ and the swaying, rhythmic ‘comparsas’, who parody and criticise the year’s events. The satire and parody are without equal, and the Cadiz sense of fun unleashes its full force, laughing and holding no punches, like nowhere else in the world.
The Plaza Mina, home to the Museum of Cadiz, is very well-known, with its famous Phoenician sarcophagi and works in its Fine Art section which make it one of the most important picture galleries in the country.

Chiclana de la Frontera Founded in 1303 by Alfonso Pérez de Guzmán, this town experienced great economic development in the 18th century, as the intense merchant and trading activity caught on around the entire Bay. Many manor houses, such as that of the Conde del Pinar, were built around this time.
A LEGACY OF MONUMENTS. Well worth a visit are the Neoclassical Parish Church of San Juan Bautista, the Church of Jesús Nazareno, the Church of San Telmo and the Hermitage of Santa Ana. The 18th century Torre del Reloj (The Clock Tower) is also of great interest.

The wine industry, which traditionally supported the local economy (with excellent wines which belong to the Jerez-Xeres-Sherry and Manzanilla de Sanlúcar Designations of Origin), has slowly given way to the tourist sector with the last few years seeing a spectacular boom. This boom is a response to the municipality’s many appealing features – an enviable natural setting and magnificent beaches - which have contributed to the burst of luxurious urban developments which have appeared, such as the Novo de Sancti Petri, with its marina and incredible golf courses. The town is also at the vanguard of Health Tourism, with the Fuente Amarga Spa (1803), now considered one of the main health centres in Spain. As well as the usual types of
treatment for pain, rheumatic, respiratory or dermatological disorders, the spa has amazing relaxing properties, and is a great beauty treatment. And everything is totally natural, with the sulphurous waters which characterise the centre. From La Barrosa Beach, one can see the picturesque Island of Sancti Petri, the only remaining part of the southern tip of Cadiz’s largest island, where tradition cites as the location of the famous temple of Hercules, erected for the Phoenician god Melkart, and visited by, amongst others, Julius Caesar and Hannibal. There are also the ruins of an old castle.
BEACHES. Chiclana has beaches to suit every taste, from the typical family beaches like La Barrosa with its wide promenade and full range of services to other quieter ones in closer contact with nature: El Puerco, sheltered by small cliffs and Punta de Piedra. Sancti-Petri Beach is ideal for windsurfing. Night life is guaranteed in both the town and the urban developments near the beach thanks to the high number of places on offer, as well as the restaurants and beach bars.

El Puerto de Santa María This bright, open town, given extra beauty by its centre which has been declared a Historic Ensemble, sits at the mouth of the Guadalete. The important archaeological remains discovered at the village of Doña Blanca (10th-3rd century B.C.), are proof of its history. El Puerto is known worldwide as the birthplace of Rafael Alberti, one of the central figures of the Generation of ’27, school which caused people to speak of a New Golden Age in Spanish literature. The indispensable Fundación Rafael Alberti Museum is devoted to introducing people to, and popularising, his work. In summer, the important Comedy Theatre Festival owes its origins to another writer, as it is organised by the Fundación Pedro Muñoz Seca.
THE “TOWN WITH A HUNDRED PALACES”. During the 18th century, the town reached new heights of splendour, and became known as the “Town with a Hundred Palaces", although it took on its present-day structure in the 20th century, thanks to the wine trade. Some of the beautiful, mainly Baroque-style palaces are still to be admired: the Vizarrón Manor House (Casa de las Cadenas), the Reinoso Mendoza Manor House (Town Hall), the Aranibar Manor House, the Valdivieso Manor House, the Purullena Palace, the Varela House...
44 - Cádiz and its Province
One of its most emblematic buildings is the Castle of San Marcos (10th-14th century), originally and Arabic mosque and currently a beautiful fortress; other buildings might be the Monastery of La Victoria and the Iglesia Mayor Prioral (both of Gothic style). Notable examples of civil architecture are La Lonja (the old Market building), the San Juan de Dios Hospital and Las Galeras Fountain. Throughout the Middle Ages, there was a progressive sea-faring boom here, so it is no surprise that many of its sailors participated in the discovery and conquest of America. It was in this town that sailor Juan de la Cosa drew, in the year 1500, the first map of the world to include the American continent.
A visit to the famous wineries is compulsory; these are the places where the wines are matured that then accompany the succulent fish and seafood dishes on offer in places such as the typical La Ribera del Marisco; nearby, you can also catch the traditional “Vaporcito”, the little steam ship, and spend the day in Cadiz. El Puerto is considered the leisure centre of la Bahía. Throughout the year, the activity is constant, but summer is the best season. Its beaches (Levante-Los Toruños, Valdelagrana, La Puntilla, Caleta de Agua, Santa Catalina and Fuentebravía) are ideal for water sports, and its modern sports facilities along with the extensive range of entertainments, restaurants and so on make this a first class tourist destination.
THE OSBORNE BULL. The ever popular Bull belonging to the Osborne Group, from El Puerto de Santa María, is a constantly visible companion to the traveller, as around 90 of them are dotted along Spain’s roads and have become an inseparable part of the landscape. This bull has become a national symbol, making the province well-known worldwide.
Cádiz and its Province - 45
Jerez de la Frontera There are few places in Spain which can lay claim to international recognition enjoyed by Jerez. Thanks to its wine, “jerez” or “sherry”, the equestrian tradition, the bulls, flamenco and motor-racing, this Andalusian town’s name has been known far and wide for many years. The Phoenicians arrived in the surrounding area some 3,000 years ago to establish a colony called Xera, which became known as Ceret under the rule of the Romans, and Sheres or Xeres when it became an Arabic fortress. Under the reign of the Catholic Monarchs, the prosperous trading of its famous wines with the English began.
SAN DIONISIO. This church is one of the best examples of Jerez Mudejar architecture. It is situated in one of the most enchanting little squares in Jerez, Asunción Square, where the Municipal Council Office is also to be found, a splendid Renaissance building.
46 - Cádiz and its Province
The Muslims left a deep mark on the town, including the layout of the quarters situated at the heart of the old Arabic city town centre: San Lucas and San Mateo, where the church of the same name is to be found, the Market Square (housing the Archaeological Museum) and the Riquelme Palace. But without a doubt, the most important AlAndalus feature is the Alcázar de Jerez, which is situated within the walled enclosure of the Mosque, the Arab Baths and the Olive Garden,
with its cisterns and fountains which are in perfect harmony with the Baroque palace of Villavicencio, built upon the ruins of the original Islamic palace, with a tower where the visitor can find the original Camera Obscura. The town has many interesting examples of Gothic architecture. In the Santiago quarter, home of bulería music, there is the Church of Santiago, dating from the 15th century, which holds the image of Our Father Jesús del Prendimiento, attributed to La Roldana. The Convent-Church of Santo Domingo and San Marcos’ Church are also good examples of this style. They each house some of the images which are carried through the streets during Easter Week (Jerez’s main festival, along with the Horse Fair). Very nearby is the Cathedral, a beautiful, highly monumental work of Baroque architecture. Inside, the choir stalls, the Virgen Niña de Zurbarán, an Inmaculada by Vaccaro, a crucifix by Juan de Arce and the Cristo de la Viga, (Gothic, 14th century) are all worth a visit. The adjacent tower is built on the site of the Arab minaret.
CARTUJA DE SANTA MARÍA DE LA DEFENSIÓN. Declared Property of Cultural Interest, this monastery is considered to be the most important religious monument in the province. Flamboyant Gothic, Plateresque Renaissance and Baroque styles go hand in hand in harmony in this structure built at the orders of Álvaro Obertos de Valeto in the second half of the 15th century, and demonstrating great beauty and charm in features such as the Entrance Portico, the Chapel of Santa María de la Defensión, the Patio de los Arrayanes, the Chapel to Los Caminantes, the layman’s cloister, or the so-called Jasmine Patio. But apart from its artistic value, La Cartuja has entered the history books as the birthplace of the Cartujan horse, as this breed descends from the famous mares which the monks bred on the Alto Cielo estate.
Cádiz and its Province - 47
SAN MIGUEL. A quarter with a gypsy air, and birthplace of singer Lola Flores, this is one of the most stately districts in Jerez, whilst also being one of the most popular. The manor houses, such as the Villapanés Palace, provide the Quarter with its special flavour. At the heart of the district, there stands the church of the same name, which was built in the Gothic style, starting in the 15th century, although the façade is a good example of Baroque architecture. The main altarpiece, the work of Martínez Montañés and Juan de Arce, is worth visiting.
Puerto Real
From the 16th and 17th centuries, the town experienced an enormous economic boom which attracted Genovese, English, Flemish, French, etc, who added impulse to the town’s trade and in particular to the wine sector. This was to mark both the physical appearance of the town (when a multitude of wineries and manor houses were built) and the character of its people (open, welcoming and gentlemanly).
A Prehistoric settlement (with remains still in El Retamar, El Gallinero and Villanueva), this town was founded in the year 1483 by the Catholic Monarchs, who required a Royal Harbour in the area.
But if we really want to get to know Jerez and its people, there is nothing better than a long walk along the Calle Larga, the nerve – and shopping – centre of the town. This is where the town’s heart beats strongest, where the best shops are to be found alongside the pavement cafés where you can enjoy a drink and some of the delicious Jerez tapas. Then we can head for the Plaza del Arenal, Jerez’s most emblematic square, the Mamelón, and the little Placita del Banco, which are all buzzing with activity, then to either Plateros or Rafael Rivero Square, which are friendly places with plenty of pavement cafés offering the town’s tasty cuisine.
The most significant monuments are the Renaissance and Baroque Iglesia Mayor Prioral de San Sebastián Church, the Convent Church of La Victoria and Jesús, María y José Church, known locally as San José’s Church, from the 18th century, the Callejón del Arco (Archway Alley), the Market place and the Water Tank (all dating from the 18th century).
Surrounded by marshlands and pine forests, the old part of the town has been declared a Historic Ensemble. It retains its original urban layout, an almost perfect square with perfectly straight streets of typical houses with attractive doorways and beautiful patios.
SAN LUIS CASTLE. The remains of the San Luis Castle, built in the early 18th century, are to be found in the Caño del Trocadero. It resisted attack Napoleon during the War of Independence, but it was destroyed years later by the Cien Mil Hijos de San Luis troops, and to commemorate the event the famous square in Paris was named after it.
This industrial town with its university has a busy cultural life with its numerous cultural
There are various options for your freetime: the High-Speed Circuit which hosts the annual Spanish Motorcycle Grand Prix, one of the top races in the World Championship. There is also the Zoo, which houses the Botanic Garden as well.

centres and two theatres, the Teatro Principal and the Teatro de Verano. It is also famous for its excellent cuisine which is based primarily on its estuary fish and seafood. The calendar of festivals in Puerto Real centres on the Carnival groups and the Holy Week brotherhoods. Besides the carnival, which are of great prestige and are highly popular, there is also the Fair. Apart from its two beaches, Río San Pedro and La Cachucha, this town is blessed with a natural setting of great beauty. Within the borough, there is the Endorheic Basins of Puerto Real Natural Reserve, made up of the lagoons of San Antonio, Taraje and El Comisario, where at particular times of year species such as the purple swamphen, the coot, the heron, the pochard, the teal, the marbled duck, the bittern, some storks and harriers. In the surrounding area, there is the Las Canteras Pine Forest, the true lungs of the Bay and recreation area for the town. With its extensive network of footpaths, it is excellent for walks. NAVAL TRADITION. The naval industry has been and is still one of the founding pillars on which the local economy is based. The Museo Histórico del Dique, in the Shipyards, reviews the history of shipbuilding in Spain and in the docks at Puerto Real. Of particular interest are the Carenas Dock, the old chapel and the remains of the old Matagorda Castle.
San Fernando Surrounded by the Bahía de Cádiz Natural Park, the once-called Isla de León which adopted its present-day name after the War of Independence (it was given this in recognition of its contribution to the defence-line against the French), boasts an interesting landscape of marshlands, salt flats and dunes. There is evidence of the presence of the Phoenicians and the Romans in the remains held in the History Museum. The Castle of San Romualdo (an Islamic ‘ribat’, or small fortress) used to defend the only access by land from the mainland to Cadiz. Previously known as “The Castle of El Lugar de la Puente”, it stands at the end of Calle Real nearest to Zuazo Bridge. Its site, near the natural defence line of the Sancti-Petri channel, has been essential in withstanding enemy attacks. But it was not until the second half of the 18th century that the town began to grow rapidly. It took on great importance both to trade and to military strategy thanks to its particular location, and thus became closely linked to the Navy. The Carraca Arsenal, the Marina Observatory, a top ranking scientific centre and the new town of San Carlos, where the San Carlos Hospital and the Illustrious Sailors’ Pavilion are located here. The Sailors Mausoleums existing in the aisles of the latter are exceptional. The town’s Naval Museum is proof of the significance of the Island in this field.
50 - Cádiz and its Province
ISLAND FLAVOUR. Visitors can choose from San Fernando’s countless bars and pubs where exquisite fish dishes, “bienmesabe” (fried marinated snapper shark), or “cañaíllas” (sea snails) and the popular Bocas de La Isla (local sea crab) can be savoured, not to mention the famous shrimp fritters. The marshlands and estuaries of the area are rich picking grounds for shellfish and fish, and are also ideal for bird-watching.
Cádiz and its Province - 51
The life and the atmosphere of the town centre on the Calle Real, where we find the individual architecture of the Island and the exquisite ironwork grilles on the windows of the houses. Perhaps the most important monuments are, in terms of civil buildings, the Town Hall, and extraordinary Neoclassical building, and the Cambiazo Patio. Noteworthy examples of its religious architecture include the Churches of El Carmen (with delightful Genovese marblework), San Francisco, La Divina Pastora and San Pedro y San Pablo. The island’s beach known as Castillo or Camposoto is situated in the Bahía de Cádiz Natural Park, with easy access from San Fernando, Cadiz and Chiclana. It is one of the cleanest, unspoilt beaches on the coast, carrying the Blue Flag for the Clean Seas of Europe. It is a sandy strip with clear, clean waters and magnificent dunes which stretch from the Sancti Petri Castle, a point known as Punta del Boquerón, to the River Arillo, at the limits of the town. The scenery at low tide is spectacular.
JOSÉ MONGE “CAMARÓN DE LA ISLA”. This flamenco singer revolutionised the flamenco universe with his personal style, recreating the traditional style and incorporating new trends by being open to contemporary popular music. His tremendous influence can still be appreciated today in all aspects of flamenco, from singing to the ‘fusion’ style developed by younger artists. La Niña Pastori and flamenco dancer Sara Baras were also born in San Fernando.

Campo de Gibraltar
Algeciras A city with a strong sea-faring tradition, whilst at the same time modern and cosmopolitan thanks to its strategic position between two continents and its large port infrastructure, one of the main nodes for the world’s sea traffic. It is the birthplace of flamenco guitarist Paco de Lucía.
NATURAL BEACHES. Much of Algeciras’ tourist appeal is centred on its beaches, including El Rinconcillo, which is in the inner part of the Bay about 3km from the city centre and stretches as far as the mouth of the Palmones River, San García Beach, and Getares, 4km from the city towards the lighthouse at Punta Carnero. In fact, a visit to Getares Cove is worthwhile, with its natural surroundings and its landscape made up of attractive cliffs and a wonderful beach, formed by deposits from the River Pícaro and the Marchenilla and El Lobo streams.
54 - Cádiz and its Province
With settlements dating from the lower Palaeolithic period, this is also an area where Phoenician and Carthaginian colonies once stood. The first town that actually existed on the site of the present-day city was the Roman town of Iulia Traducta (1st century AD). In 711, Tarik and his troops would found AlYazirat-al-Hadra (Green Island) on the Roman ruins. The capital of a county and Moorish kingdom province, it was razed to the ground in the late 14th century. After the loss of Gibraltar (1704), its inhabitants had to leave and seek out new sites in the Bay of Algeciras to found new towns or perhaps repopulate old settlements. From the Medieval period (13th-14th century), it still retains the important Archaeological Site of Villa Nueva de Algeciras, with four flanking towers, remains of the barbican, a section of the moat and the access bridge. Also handed down to our times are the remains of the Meriníes Baths, the Royal Baths of al-Binya, the meriní town of Algeciras, which are on show in the María Cristina Park.
Roman ovens were found on the beach of El Rinconcillo, dating from 1 A.D.. Originally, this was the place where amphorae were made for transporting 'Garum'. Another interesting building, on the outskirts of the city, is the Los Arcos del Cobre Aqueduct (18th century), used to transport water from the Sierra del Cobre to the local population. In current times, two sections remain, one in the Barriada El Cobre and one in the Barriada de La Perlita.
THE PORT. With its trading activity and passenger traffic, thanks to its excellent infrastructure and enviable geographic location, this is the first ranking port in the Mediterranean in terms of container shipping, and the number one in Spain for passenger and vehicle movement. It is also a potential stopping-point for cruises, owing to the tourist appeal of the area.
The Plaza Alta, the social centre of the city, houses important monuments such as the Parochial Church of Nuestra Señora de la Palma and the small Chapel of Nuestra Señora de Europa. Algeciras’ heritage in buil-

dings is completed with the City Hall, the Market Place, the Chapel of Santo Cristo de la Alameda and the Chapel of San Antón, which makes up a harmonious ensemble with the Hospital de la Caridad.
BIRD AND WHALE WATCHING. El Campo de Gibraltar and, thereby, the coast of Algeciras is one of the main sites in Europe for bird- and whale-watching, thanks to its proximity to the African continent, the confluence of the waters of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, and the great variety of habitats favoured by the climate.
56 - Cádiz and its Province
The love of bulls is evident when you see the “Las Palomas” bullring. Other options for your free-time are, for example, water sports. The Royal Sailing Club of Algeciras is located in the port, near the town centre. It has 70 mooring points and all the services required by sailors. Nearby, there are all the most important hotels, restaurants and shops in the city. Of great interest in terms of flora and fauna is the Gorge or “canuto” beauty spot on the River Miel (in the Los Alcornocales Natural Park) with the La Chorrera waterfall, mills and remains of the old road which was used as a short cut to cross the mountains after the Middle Ages.
Castellar de la Frontera Standing on a rocky promontory with its magnificent castle overlooking the entire Bay and the Rock of Gibraltar, Castellar is the green lung of the area, benefiting from the Los Alcornocales Natural Park. Its origins date back to the Bronze Age (archaeological sites at the El Cancho Caves, El Tajo and Abejera), but it truly developed an identity after the Muslim conquest, becoming known as Al-Qars. When speaking about the town, we have to distinguish between Old Castellar and New Castellar, built in 1971 8km from the old town. The fortress (12th–15th century) is situated in the old town, in perfect condition although is has been renovated. Within the castle there is one of the few examples in existence of an inhabited urban nucleus inside a fortress. It retains a marked Medieval character, with its sinuous network of clean, white-washed streets. This is where the El Divino Salvador
THE ALMORAIMA. This, along with old Castellar and Nuevo Pueblo de Castellar, is the third urban area in the borough. In 1603, the Mercedarian Order built the San Miguel de la Almoraima Convent here. The monks remained there until the midseventeenth century, when it passed into the hands of the Duke of Medinaceli, who converted it into an estate for recreation and hunting. In 1945, the Almoraima Bark-Stripping Company was set up, around which homes were built which would then become the district of La Almoraima.
Cádiz and its Province - 57
Jimena de la Frontera Situated between the Sierra de Ronda and the Bay of Algeciras, its fortress overlooks the hill on the slopes of which sit the white houses of this village. Occupied since Prehistory, cave paintings are still to be seen at the archaeological site of La Laja Alta, and are the only example of maritime scenes from the Bronze Age in Spain. With the Muslim invasion, Jimena was fortified and became a strategic site.
Church is located, along the side of which runs a passageway called ‘algorfa’ which connects it with the Alcázar, the Moorish palace. Another building of Muslim origin is the Almoraima Tower, which sits upon a hill. This tower was used as a beacon as well as a way of transmitting news. THE BULL ROUTE. This town is included in the itinerary known as the Bull Route, which runs through the province of Cadiz, and which is an invitation to discover the life of this animal in its natural habitat, as well as the selection procedure involved in continuing the fighting-bull as a species. At the Boyal and La Almoraima cattle-rearing farms, one can enjoy sights of the vast herds of fighting cattle which are bred on these lands.
58 - Cádiz and its Province
Castellar “El Nuevo” is a totally modern town, with wide streets and squares. Here we find the Divino Salvador Church housing the image of the Santísimo Cristo de la Almoraima, worshipped by many. In the Plaza Andalucía, there also stands an important sculpture which commemorates the 25th Anniversary of the creation of the new town, and nearby there is a second sculpture dedicated to Human Rights.
Its heritage is dominated by the castle dating from the 13th and 14th centuries (Property of Cultural Interest). Apart from the battlemented walls, features of interest include the Keep, the Albarrana Tower, the cisterns and the gateways such as the Arco del Reloj. Behind the castle, there is the Baño de la Reina Mora (The Moorish Queen’s Bath). Other jewels of religious architecture include the Nuestra Señora de la Victoria Church, the bell-tower of Santa María la Coronada Church, La Misericordia Church and, on the outskirts, the Nuestra Señora de los Ángeles Sanctuary (15th-17th century). The town hosts two cultural events of great importance. The first is the International Music Festival in July, which is surprising for the quality of those taking part and the stages set up in green areas, as well as in the magnificent Historical Centre of the town. Also worthy of mention is the Jimena Station Flamenco Festival.
ACTIVE TOURISM. As Jimena is within the Los Alcornocales Natural Park, top activities include hill-walking, bicycle-touring and horse-riding. Particularly beautiful is the walk which follows the banks the River Hozgarganta, taking approximately three to four hours.
Another attractive feature is the cuisine, which is always closely related to game, and in particular venison, as well as rabbit and partridge. Whether presented as ham, chops, fillets or loin, venison is tender and is generally tenderised by marinating it in wine and herbs.

La Línea de la Concepción
Los Barrios
On the frontier with Gibraltar, the origin of this town was the Línea de Contravalación (The Countermobility Line), which Felipe V had constructed during the Gibraltar sieges in the 18th century, blocking anyone from crossing the isthmus which connected the mainland to the Rock.
This town, which is more rural than maritime, owes its magnificent strategic position beside the Straits to early settlement by Neolithic cultures (there are cave paintings at Puerto de Bacinete and El Pajarraco), Phoenicians, and Romans. The current urban centre was founded by the old inhabitants of Gibraltar who were banished from the colony in the 18th century.
Once the War of Independence had ended (1810), the civilians who arrived, attracted by the magnet of the jobs available in Gibraltar built shacks and huts in the shadow of the ruins of the border line. This was the seed that grew into the first urban settlement at La Línea which would then take the name of Concepción as a tribute to the patron saint of the Infantry (closely linked to the history of the area).
GIBRALTAR. Called Jebel Tarik (Mount Tarik) by the Arabs, this imposing limestone mass of great natural value hosts a wealth of flora and fauna on its slopes. Amongst it assiduous inhabitants there is a colony of gregarious, tailless monkeys which delight visitors to the Rock. The urban area of Gibraltar and the airport, built on reclaimed land and shared by Gibraltar and Spain, stretch out at the foot of the rock. The people of Gibraltar are known affectionately as the “llanitos”, being a mixture of ethnic origins and cultures. The blood running through their veins is British, Spanish, Maltese, Jewish, Moroccan, Genovese and Indian.
60 - Cádiz and its Province
The urban design has a colonial air, and retains a beacon tower (16th-17th century) and remains of Santa Bárbara and San Felipe Forts (18th century), besides the Church of the Inmaculada. Amongst the enormous offer in Museums, there is everything from the Cruz Herrera Museum to the Isthmus Museum, with archaeological treasures, and the Pepe Cabrera Municipal Bull-Fighting Museum, one of the most important of its type in Spain. One of the main tourist attractions is the beaches with their pale, clear sands: La Alcaidesa, El Burgo, La Hacienda, La Atunara and in particular, the Poniente Beach. They are perfect for any kind of water sport, for instance sailing, water-skiing, windsurfing or fishing. The Los Alcornocales Natural Park is very close to the town.
In the Plaza de la Iglesia, the Church Square, there are three of the town’s most emblematic buildings, the San Isidro Labrador Parish Church, the Town Hall and the Urrutia House, a beautiful, Baroque-style manor house. Other civil buildings which are worth visiting are the Old Pósito del Trigo (Wheat Granary) currently housing the Natural History Museum, the Baroque Doncellas House, the Old Hospital de la Caridad, the Parodys House, the Old Casino, the Old Slaughterhouse, the Coca Well and La Montera Bullring. Other leisure options include features ranging from the Botanic Garden and the Betty Molesworth Botanic Park to the walks through the surrounding areas allowing the visitor to stop in at the Ojen Hermitage and Village, the Monte de la Torre Watchtower, Los Cachones Mill and the Roman Bridge. Also in the area around the town, there is the Cortijo de Guadacorte, which had stables of a standard appropriate to the high-esteem in which the Larios family held horses, an indispensable aspect of fox-hunting with hounds, made popular by Gibraltar’s Calpe Hunt.
NATURAL PARADISE. In the area around Los Barrios, there are numerous natural beauty spots of extraordinary, unique beauty. The Marismas del Río Palmones Natural Beauty Spot stands out as an important resting area for thousands of birds. La Montera del Torero is a rock mass with the curious shape of a bull-fighter’s cap which has become an emblem of the town. Some 18km from the urban centre heading for Jerez, there is the Charco Redondo Reservoir, an elegant artificial lake surrounded by mountains, which has a recreational area. The Tiradero Stream retains one of the purest, best-conserved forests in the Los Alcornocales Natural Park. Guadacorte Lake and the artificial beach at Palmones, with its quiet waters, are ideal for water sports and leisure activities.
Cádiz and its Province - 61
SOTOGRANDE. San Roque possesses important tourist developments with magnificent golf courses, ports and other sports facilities, besides a wonderful hotel and accommodation infrastructure. Particularly worthy of mention is the exclusive residential development of Sotogrande with 5 golf courses (Valderrama Golf Club, the Royal Golf Club of Sotogrande, Almenara Hotel Golf, San Roque Golf Club and La Cañada Golf Club), a luxurious marina and one of the world’s top polo clubs, where qualifying matches for the World Championships are played.
San Roque
Tarifa
This typical Andalusian small town, with white-washed streets and ironwork balconies sits on a natural vantage point, avidly guarding the remains left by its old settlers. Particularly relevant are the ruins of the Roman town of Carteia (second century B.C.) of which some structures, the town walls, towers, streets, the forum and houses still remain.
Reaching out into the sea, the southernmost point in Europe and the closest point to Africa, Tarifa is one of the coastal towns with the greatest tourist renown, having become an authentic Mecca for windsurfers. Besides its numerous prehistoric remains (such as the naturalistic paintings in the Moro Cave, and the necropolis at Los Algarbes), there are not only Phoenician remains on the Island of Las Palomas but also remains from the Roman period, with the archaeologically important town of Baelo Claudia, considered the most important find in the province. Called Al-Yazirat Tarif (Tarif Island) by the Muslims, this was an important strategic point as frontier zone, stronghold against pirate forays and military site opposite the English occupied Gibraltar.
The current town grew up as a result of the Taking of Gibraltar, when its inhabitants had to abandon their home and seek refuge in other areas. Some headed for the Hermitage of San Roque and then established San Roque there. The old part of the village, declared a Historic Ensemble, is an example of organised, rational urban design in which the streets are adapted to the relief. The village boasts religious monuments such as the Santa María Coronada Church and the Visitación de Nuestra Señora Church, as well as interesting civil buildings: the Governors’ Palace (for many years the seat of the Military Command in the region of Gibraltar) and the Town Hall. San Roque possesses splendid beaches with cliffs where one can contemplate Africa and the Strait of Gibraltar, beaches which are ideal for water sports or for bird-watching. The most note-worthy are El Cabrero or Cala Taraje on the outskirts of Torreguadiaro, Sotogrande and Torrecarbonera (with beautiful, natural surroundings).
62 - Cádiz and its Province
BAELO CLAUDIA. This Roman town, probably founded in the third century B.C:, experienced great economic and urban development between the second century B.C. and the second century A.D. The economic base for this was fishing and tunny-net fishing, a system for fishing tuna introduced by the Phoenicians. These fish were used to prepare salt fish products and the famous garum sauce. The town boasted great public buildings such as the forum, the thermal baths, the temples or the theatre, amongst others. Nowadays, one can still visit, right beside the beach, this impressive archaeological site which has retained its layout and monuments, as well as a large part of its architecture, in very good condition.
Cádiz and its Province - 63
GUZMAN EL BUENO’S CASTLE. Dating from the 10th-15th centuries, this is one of the local jewels. It was built at the orders of the Cordoba’s Caliph Cordoba Abderramán III, and is wellconserved, in particular its great octagonal tower, the Jerez Gate and the Watchtowers from the 16th.
64 - Cádiz and its Province
It is possible to see two separate sections of the town walls from the dating from the 10th-16th centuries: the first section is from the Islamic period and surrounded a smaller area whilst the second surrounds almost the entire historic centre. This is where the Iglesia Mayor of San Mateo, that of San Francisco and Santa María Church are to be found. Its idyllic, extensive beaches beaten by the winds from the east make Tarifa a cult centre for fans of water sports, such as windsurfing, kite-surfing, fly-surfing, Blokart sailing or diving, to name but a few. Beyond Playa Chica, Los Lances and Valdevaqueros, we come upon Bolonia Beach, a wild, huge dune with areas reserved for nudists. El Cañuelo is a beach with natural surroundings, spectacular vegetation, and crystal-clear water, which can be reached from the Camarinal Lighthouse. Los Alemanes beach stretches from the La Plata Cape to Gracia Cape. Finally, Atlanterra is the continuation of Zahara de los Atunes. The borough extends across four different protected natural areas: the Los Alcornocales Natural Park, El Estrecho Natural Park, the Los Lances Beach Beauty Spot –an area where many birds come together going to and from the crossing at the Strait of Gibraltar- and the Natural Monument of the Bolonia Dune, which is more than 30 metres high and is situated on the Punta Camarinal isthmus, on the southern Atlantic coast of Cadiz.
Bajo Guadalquivir
Chipiona THE LIGHTHOUSE. Rebuilt on the ruins of the ancient Roman lighthouse which Quintus Servilius had built to guide sailors towards the Guadalquivir, so that they avoided the dangers of the Salmedina Rock, the cause of many shipwrecks. It stands on Punta del Perro, separating Las Canteras and Regla beaches. Built in 1867 by the engineer Jaime Font, it is the tallest in Spain, at 69m. The promontory on which it sits is a magnificent vantage point.
This seafaring town which saw the birth of Rocío Jurado is situated very near the Mouth of the Guadalquivir and Doñana. The monuments that constitute the town’s heritage are a faithful reflection of its true historical significance, as its origins go back as far as the Roman Empire. The castle (Property of Cultural Interest) was built at the orders of Guzman el Bueno and finished by the Ponce de León in the 14th century. It is totally battlemented, has ogival windows and a square tower. The most emblematic building is, undoubtedly, the Regla Sanctuary, which breathes a NeoGothic air. The place of worship, which stands on an old fortress and in current times belongs to the Franciscans, houses the patron of Chipiona. Worthy of mention is the imperial staircase which leads to the Mudejar cloisters dating from the 15th century, the vaulted cellars, the walls decorated with tiles from Triana (1640), the museum and the library. Other buildings of interest are the Church of Nuestra Señora de la O (16th-17th century), the Chapel of Cristo de la Misericordia and the Santa Clara Sanatorium (the first maritime clinic in Spain). Chipiona has been an important summer resort since the early 20th century. It still retains numerous beautiful villas which give it a very particular, special character. The Prome-nades by the Regla and Las Canteras beaches, which are busy and buzzing, are lined with pavement cafés where one can sit and enjoy the views of the sea,

while sipping the region’s famous moscatel wine. Outstanding in the cut flower industry (and host to the sector’s International Fair, FLORASUR), the beaches (Regla, del Camarón, Tres Piedras, Cruz del Mar, Las Canteras, Montijo and la Ballena) have been awarded with Blue Flags for Clean Waters of Europe since 1989. They are the perfect backdrop for water sports which can be enjoyed in the modern Marina. And if you wish to spend a quiet day in the country, the town offers recreation areas such as El Pinar, the habitat of the ancestral chameleon, which is very common in the area.
FISH CORRALS. These are structures enclosing sea water and which, at low tide, trap crustaceans and molluscs then caught by fishermen. They constitute an original historical, cultural and landscape ensemble which is the inheritance of an ancient rural, fishing culture, presumably Roman or Arab (in this way the fish were kept alive until they were consumed). They can be visited at either Chipiona or Rota. The Rota corrals, situated on La Almadraba beach, have been declared a Natural Monument.
Rota Thanks to its situation on the coast – between the mouth of the River Guadalquivir and the entrance to the Bahía de Cádiz- it has seen many cultures and civilisations pass through its lands. It has been a port since Phoenician times, and numerous Roman remains have been discovered in the surrounding area. Declared a Historic Ensemble, its ancient archways and narrow streets of white houses make up the urban design of this beautiful village of pretty squares and picturesque corners where you can savour the cuisine of Rota, intimately linked to both the country and the sea, with typical dishes such as Urta a la roteña, washed down with the local wine Tintilla, an ancient, sweet, dark-coloured wine.

Sanlúcar de Barrameda Situated on the left of the mouth of the River Guadalquivir and opposite Doñana, the origins of the first settlement came about because of the building of a Phoenician temple dedicated to Astarté.
The most emblematic building in the town is, undoubtedly, the Castillo de Luna (Property of Cultural Interest), built in the 13th century at the orders of Guzmán el Bueno on the site of an old 11th century Arab fortified camp. It is rectangular with five battlemented towers, the most important of which are the Alianza Tower and the Keep. It houses an original patio dating from the 15th century with a wonderful arched gallery and painted bases. There are also remains of the walls which defended the town between the 12th and 15th centuries, including the Regla or Chipiona Gate, Sanlúcar Gate and Puerta del Maro o del Muelle.
COSTA BALLENA. This exclusive tourist complex sits on a coastal strip of 400 hectares situated in the municipalities of Rota and Chipiona. With almost 4km of virgin beaches, this authentic summer resort boasts a wide range of sports facilities, in particular its 18-hole golf course designed by Spanish golfer José María Olazábal.
68 - Cádiz and its Province
Other buildings of interest are Nuestra Señora de la O Church (16th century), La Caridad Chapel (next to the Plaza del Reloj), Torre de la Merced, San Roque Church and the Casa de la Cilla, where tithes were collected.
This stately town - declared a Historic Ensemble - has an urban design characterised by being divided into two great nuclei: the Barrio Alto and the Barrio Bajo. The Barrio Alto is the historic centre with the town’s monuments, narrow streets, white house fronts and aristocratic palaces such as the Palace of Orleáns y Borbón (beside the Basílica de Nuestra Señora de la Caridad) or the Renaissance Palacio Ducal de Medina Sidonia. Nearby, we can find the Arquillo or Rota Gate, the remains of the Medieval walls, the Santiago Castle (15th century), the Las Descalzas Convent and Nuestra Señora de la O Church. Going down the Cuesta Belén towards the Barrio Bajo, there is the Auditorio de la Merced, and the 15th century ‘Covachas’ -the best example of Gothic architecture in the town– which decorate one of the façades of the Dukes Palace. The Plaza de San Roque is the site of the wonderful atmosphere of the Market Place, full colour and local flavour, with its stall-holders singing the praises of their products at the tops of their voices. On the way to the Church of Santo Domingo (16th century), we find the Church of San Jorge and the Regina Coeli Convent. In the opposite direction, there is the Church of El Carmen and the Capuchin Convent.
AMERICAN SPLENDOUR. After the discovery of the New World, this town became a port of reference and the point of departure for Christopher Columbus on his third voyage, Magallanes and Juan Sebastián Elcano on the first round-the-world voyage. The greatest economic peak in its history comes thanks to the development of trade between America and the Port of Seville, under the protection of the Duques de Medina Sidonia. The arrival of the Duques de Montpensier, along with the wineries, brought about an economic and cultural revival in the 19th century.
This is a town with great atmosphere and life, with a wide range of leisure options which multiply during the summer season, which is when the popular Feria de la Urta (Festival of National Tourist Interest) and the Flamenco Festival ‘Arranque Roteño’ are held. Its 16 km of magnificent, clean beaches, such as the La Costilla, El Rompidillo or Punta Candor, are absolutely ideal both for enjoying a day of sun and sea and for water-sports. The extensive pine forests and dunes which in some cases reach the beach itself are the option chosen by tourists for a quiet day in the county or for walks, horse-rides or bicycle rides.
Cádiz and its Province - 69
Trebujena Situated near the final stretch of the Mouth of the Guadalquivir, the landscape alternates marshes with a sea of gentle slopes of white earth covered in vineyards.
To go for tapas in Sanlúcar, nowhere is better than the Plaza Cabildo or Bajo de Guía, the fisherman’s district inundated with restaurants where you can try the famous king prawns, fried fish and seafood dishes. The steamer “Real Fernando”, which crosses the river as far as the river mouth, allowing the visitor to discover Doñana, departs from the pontoon in Bajo de Guía. LA MANZANILLA WINE. The genuine microclimate of the town is essential to the ageing of manzanilla –the most representative of the local wines – which is included in the Designation of Origin Jerez-Xeres-Sherry. It is a dry wine, suitable as an aperitif, with a beautiful pale golden colour, which is aged in white oak barrels in the wineries in the town centre known as the ‘cathedrals of wine’. These blend perfectly with the urban design of Sanlúcar, primarily in the Barrio Alto, where the Barbadillo Manzanilla Museum is also to be found.
The coast of Sanlúcar has 6km of beach, the most representative of which are the Bajo de Guía beach, La Calzada, Las Piletas, La Jara beaches and, on the bank of the National Park of Doñana, the Coto beach, also known locally as 'la otra banda', the other side. In Doñana, there are also several of Sanlúcar’s beauty spots: the Pinares de la Algaida and the Bonanza Marshes and Salt Beds are to be found. The famous Horse Races (International Tourist Interest) take place on the beaches of this town, which were originally started by the aristocracy and bourgeoisie of 19th century Sanlúcar, who were keen to liven up the town’s social life during the summer season.
The most ancient, reliable details regarding settlement in the area date back to the oil trade with the Orient in Roman times, via the Portus Tarbissana which was reached by the Lacus Licustinus. The centre of the town is noteworthy for its whiteness and for its long, open streets, the busiest of which is the Calle Larga. The Plaza Mayor is the nerve centre of the town, where all the important events are held, and it is here that the Baroque Parish Church of La Purísima Concepción, from the 17th and 18th centuries, stands, along with the Puerta del Perdón and the valuable Cristo de la Misericordia (18th century) of the Juan de Mesa school. Almost nothing remains of the original castle bar a few stretches of wall and battlements which can be seen if we walk towards the old Market Place. The Nuestra Señora de Palomares Hermitage houses, apart from the town’s patron, the Cristo de la Veracruz (15th or 16th century). Trebujena is registered within the wine category of Jerez-Xerez-Sherry and Manzanilla from Sanlúcar and it is famous for its young ‘mosto’ wines, which should always be sipped accompanied by the delicious shrimps or famous eels. THE CINEMA. The River Guadalquivir has marked the life of these people since ancient times. As we approach, the landscape is very varied. On the one hand, the slopes covered in vines, and on the other the marshes; on the horizon, Doñana. A spectacular sight at dusk. So much so, that it was here that Steven Spielberg chose to film The Empire of the Sun.

The wetlands on the Codo de la Esparraguera estate have become a privileged area for birds. The flocks of marbled teal, red-knobbed coots and white-headed duck – all of which are in danger of extinction - make this wet area one of the most important in Andalusia. In the midst of the marshland plain, opposite the Doñana Park, is the Cortijo Alventus, dating from the 18th century, there are exhibitions of ‘Acoso y Derribo’ with bulls and one can join in bull trials and country fiestas. Close by is the Ribera del Guadalquivir Park, in which the old marsh shacks have been converted for visitors to enjoy a few days of relaxation and peace in contact with nature.
Seville Province
El Coronil
DEHESA DE PILARES. This natural beauty spot of exceptional ecological value is the only authentic Mediterranean estate in the area and for many kilometres. It is here that the local townsfolk and visitors come together in the month of May to celebrate the traditional ‘romería’, a type of pilgrimage.
Situated in the foothills of Seville’s Sierra Sur, the River Guadalete and the Salado stream run through this small town. With the remains of settlements dating back to Prehistoric times, very nearby we find the Roman town of Salpesa. After the Reconquista, it passed into the hands of the House of Esquivel, and 45 families populated the crest of the hill, “corona”, from where it takes its name. The town centre is characterised by stately houses and narrow streets with a large number of interesting monuments: Nuestra Señora de la Consolación Church, the stately home of D. Diego Quebrado, Los Dolores Chapel, Vera Cruz Convent and the Calvario Hermitage, as well as a Moorish well dating from the 13th century and the Casa Marcela, built following the Italian line summer homes. But the town’s jewels are, undoubtedly, its two castles, the Las Aguzaderas Castle, of
Arabic origin rebuilt in the 14th century, and the El Coronil Castle (11th century) built by the Muslims on ancient Roman remains and extended after the Reconquista.
El Cuervo In ancient times, the Roman Vía Augusta, which was one of the main routes of communication in the Peninsula, ran through the area. In the early 20th century and around the Casa de Postas (18th century), the first colonisers settled in order to work in the nearby cortijo farmhouses. Its most emblematic building is the above-mentioned Casa de Postas, a clear example of rural architecture, which was once an inn for travellers to rest and change horses. The village also possesses San José Church, built in 1928, which houses the image of the patron of the town, the Virgen del Rosario. In the surrounding area we might visit the Rocío de la Cámara Park, where the Hermitage of the Virgen del Rosario is to be found. The image of the Patron is carried here every year from the Parish, during the pilgrimage of the same name.
LAGUNA DE LOS TOLLOS. This is the third largest lagoon in Andalusia, and the second widest after Fuentedepiedra. Its ecological wealth is based on the important number of birds that choose the lagoon as a winter nesting area or stopping-off point when migrating.
Las Cabezas de San Juan Named Ugía by the Turdetanis and Atalaya de Montúfar by the Muslims, its white houses stand out against the plain. The Casa de Cultura exhibits the archaeological remains found in the borough, amongst which of particular interest are an Iberian lion, a Dama burial stela and a collection of coins. The most relevant historic event was the Riego Military Uprising in 1820, which aimed to

Las Cabezas Natural Reserve and the Brazo del Este and La Señuela beauty spots are to be found nearby, next to the banks of the Guadalquivir. This latter site is perfect for sports and recreational activities such as horse-riding, bicycle touring, kayaking or bird-watching.
Los Molares RINCÓN MALILLO. One of the town’s emblematic sites, this is one of the access points to the San Juan Bautista Church. Birthplace of numerous artistes and setting for many years now of the Festival Flamenco de la Yerbabuena, which brings together some of the most prestigious names in song and dance, today it also houses one of the most beautiful Cruces celebrations in Las Cabezas.
pass the first Spanish Constitution. In the Plaza de los Mártires del Pueblo there is a statue to General Riego. Other monuments are the Parish Church of San Roque, the Church of San Juan Bautista, which sits on the land belonging to the old castle, the Hermitage of Nuestro Padre Jesús Cautivo, and the Baroque Casa de los Valcárcel. Part of the Endorheic Basins Complex of Lebrija-Las Cabezas, this is a protected, natural reserve of marsh plants and full of lagoons. The birds to be found here are of great interest.
Lebrija
THE “CARACOLÁ LEBRIJANA”. The first time this festival was held was in 1966. The idea came from a group of flamenco enthusiasts who met in the town’s old Bar Paula. It is held in high esteem by critics and artistes countrywide.
74 - Cádiz and its Province
Populated since Prehistory, this area has seen Phoenicians, Romans, and Arabs, who left a significant legacy, such as the remains of the town walls and the castle dating from the 9th century (Property of Cultural Interest). The legacy in monuments is upheld by buildings such as the Parish Church of Nuestra Señora de la Oliva with its popular tower known as La Giraldilla and the Museum of Religious Art, the Church of the Monjas Concepcionistas (nuns who make exquisite sweets and pastries), the Mudejar Church of Santa María del Castillo, the Casa del Cabildo and the old Cilla del Cabildo, as well as the Mansion House of the Marqués de San Gil. Birthplace of illustrious names such as the humanist Elio Antonio de Nebrija or the navigator Juan Díaz de Solís, the Endorheic Basins Lebrija-
Situated on the left bank of the River Guadalquivir, the village is set around the castle built in the 14th century by Lope Gutiérrez of Toledo, which then passed into the hands of the Ribera family, the Dukes of Medinaceli, thus becoming an important fortress against the Moors in Granada. It can be seen from almost any position or distance due to its great height, some 20 metres from its base. It retains almost the entire walled, battlemented enclosure. The Church of Santa Marta is also worth mentioning, being of Mudejar origin with a beautiful tower with Renaissance decoration in the belfry.
PIEDRA HINCÁ. To enjoy the beautiful area around Los Molares, there is nothing better than relaxing at the Piedra Hincá beauty spot, a eucalyptus wood some 5km from the village.
Los Palacios y Villafranca Situated on the clay land irrigated by the Guadalquivir, Los Palacios y Villafranca is the result of the merging in 1836 of the villages of Los Palacios, a small Arabic fortress, and Villafranca de las Marismas, a small village of farm labourers and shepherds. Its artistic wealth is provided by the Iglesia Mayor Santa María La Blanca, of Medieval origin and a blend of Baroque and Neoclassical styles, which still retains its original Mudejar Tower. Other monuments of interest are the Chapels of San Sebastián, of La Aurora and of Nuestra Señora de Dolores, and the Casa de la Cultura. Representative of the municipa-

EQUESTRIAN TOURISM. There is a school for magnificent jockeys, experts in reining, and excellent picadors and cattle-overseers, in this town where the Doma vaquera Competitions are held (the latter being part of the championship of Spain) in summer. The equestrian tradition is also apparent in the Municipal Racetrack at El Palmar, this being facilities for holding high level “acoso y derribo” competitions with bulls and horses.
POTAJE GITANO. The flamenco festivals as such began in 1957 with a celebration held by the members of the Utrera Gypsies Brotherhood, which early on became the excuse for a large, community meal: a “potaje”. With more than half a century of history, this festival has paid tribute to Antonio Mairena, Pastora Imperio, Manolo Caracol, Lola Flores and, of course, to Utrera’s own emblematic flamenco artistes: Fernanda and Bernarda de Utrera, La Perrata, El Turronero...

lity’s architectural style are the Haciendas and ‘cortijos’ farmhouses like Los Frailes, San Juan del Hornillo, el Cuzco, Juan Gómez Orán.... This small town with its typical Andalusian houses possesses natural areas of great value, such as the Cerro de las Cigüeñas and the Brazo del Este Natural Beauty Spot, which are especially important for birdlife. To truly enjoy the Guadalquivir and its surrounding area, the path known as Carretera del Práctico it the ideal route for a walk, cycle ride or horse ride parallel to the river allowing the visitor to get to know the area around Los Palacios y Villafranca as far as Sanlúcar.
Utrera
Birthplace of the Álvarez Quintero brothers, Utrera is a noble town with a great historical heritage and has been declared a Historical Ensemble. Noteworthy civil buildings are, apart from the old Jewish Quarter (Niño Perdido), the Castle, rebuilt in the 14th century on the remains of an Arab fortress, the watchtowers, the Arco de la Villa and remains of the walls, the Fuente de los Ocho Caños (Eight-spout fountain), the Mansion House of the Marqués de Tous and the Palace of the Conde de Vistahermosa, amongst others. Worthy of mention among the prolific religious architecture in the town are the Parish Churches of Santiago el Mayor, a Gothic structure from the 14th century, and of Santa María de Mesa. On the Torre del Águila reservoir, water sports are available and one can go bird-watching at the Laguna de Zarracatín to observe birds such as the flamingos. There are also many ‘cortijos’ which have been converted into rural accommodation and which offer horse-rides, cycle touring and visits to the famous stud farms and fighting cattle farms in the area. The municipality is part of the environmental region of the Utrera Endorheic Basins Natural Reserve.
La Janda
Alcalá de los Gazules This town has numerous remains attesting to the presence of human settlers in the area since the Palaeolithic period. These include ancient cave engravings at the site of Laja de los Hierros. On the outskirts of the town, at the Mesa del Esparragal site, stand the remains of the Lascutana Tower, which was built by the Visigoths using the remains of Roman constructions, where the “Bronze of Lacusta” was discovered, the first Roman inscription from Spain now exhibited at the Louvre Museum in Paris; the Roman deposits at La Salada; and the remains of the Roman bridge over the River Barbate. Medieval fortifications that have stood the test of time include the castle (13th Century16th Century), of which only the foot of the turret remains, some wall canvases and the Puerta de la Villa (Town Gate). In Plaza de San Jorge, referred to by locals as “Plaza Alta”, are the Iglesia Mayor Parroquial San Jorge and the Council House.
LOCAL CHARM. Declared a Historical Site, Alcalá is a beautiful typically-Andalusian town with steep, whitewashed streets that open onto large squares. It lies on the Bull Route.
78 - Cádiz and its Province
In addition to its Moorish-style fountains, Pozo de Arriba, Pozo de Enmedio and Pozo de Abajo, other interesting examples of the town’s architecture include the Santa Clara Convent, the old Santo Domingo Convent and the Nuestra Señora de los Santos Sanctuary, where a popular rural pilgrimage is held every year. Alcalá de los Gazules is an excellent starting point for exploring the Los Alcornocales
Natural Park, the ideal location to engage in active tourism (e.g. hiking, kayaking, cycle tourism, horse riding). Inland, visitors can make interesting excursions to the Sierra del Aljibe mountain range and climb its highest peak and marvel at the beautiful panoramic views. The area is rich in wildlife, notably roe deer, deer and different species of birds, vultures and Bonelli eagles. Near the town is a recreational area called El Picacho, which has a Nature Classroom, a camping area and a shelter.
Barbate Situated in the area known by the Greeks as the “Pillars of Hercules”, this white town, basking in the Andalusian sun, has, since time immemorial, been intimately linked to the sea and to fishing, developed through its picturesque fishing port. Although numerous prehistoric remains have been unearthed in the area (schematic cave paintings at Cuevas de Fuente Santa and Mojama; anthropomorphic tombs and dolmens at Caño Arado), Barbate was transformed into an exporting port by the Phoenicians when they introduced the almadraba art of fishing in this area, an art that has endured until today. During the Roman Empire, Barbate enjoyed its period of greatest splendour and became a prosperous centre due to its fishing and salting industry.
WATCHTOWERS. The Tajo, Trafalgar and Meca Towers were built between the 15th and 16th Centuries as defences against pirate attacks in the area. They were initially protected by artillery. However, this was not effective and they were later used as lookout towers. They communicated with one another using smoke signals. In 1805, in the waters in front of what is today the Trafalgar Lighthouse, the famous battle of Trafalgar was fought between a combined Spanish and French fleet and the English fleet lead by Admiral Nelson.

Benalup-Casas Viejas
ZAHARA DE LOS ATUNES. This municipal district of Barbate is an enchanting small seafaring town brimming with Andalusian flavour and charm, with virgin beaches that have kept their natural wealth intact. The La Almadraba Castle can be found here, built by the Dukes of Medina Sidonia to store and protect the nets and materials used in almadraba tuna fishing.
80 - Cádiz and its Province
Examples of Visigoth architecture on the outskirts of the town include the San Ambrosio Hermitage. Inscriptions on one of the hermitage’s columns indicate that it was consecrated in the 7th Century. It is worth visiting Palomar de la Breña, an 18th century country estate that has been converted into a hotel, since it has one of the three largest dovecotes in Europe (with 7,700 putlog holes). Barbate’s paradisiacal beaches are ideal for bathing and practising water sports. The Playa del Carmen beach is next to the port (inside the town) and has a long beach promenade and is a popular place for fishing and windsurfing. Caños de Meca is an extensive strip of stand and crystal-clear waters, with natural caves and cliffs, and a popular site with nudists (just like Playa de Zahora). The Yerbabuena beach is a wild beach, whereas Zahara de los Atunes links up with Playa de Atlanterra. Barbate is set in the heart of the La Breña y Marismas de Barbate Natural Park, and offers visitors a world of recreational possibilities. The natural park has specially-prepared, sign-posted routes for visitors to enjoy its beautiful landscapes and ecological treasures. Different activities are also available, including hiking, cycle tourism, horse riding and mountain sports.
This town is one of the gateways to the Los Alcornocales Natural Park and a bridge between the Sierra de Cadiz mountains and the Barbate Marshlands. This area has been inhabited since Prehistory, as revealed by the paintings and anthropomorphous tombs dug out of the rocks at Peñón del Tajo de las Figuras (the finest collection of schematic cave paintings in Prehistoric Western Europe) and the caves at El Arco y Cimera. From the Muslim period remains the “Torre de la Morita”. Noteworthy monuments include the Nuestra Señora del Socorro Church. But undoubtedly the episode that sadly made this town famous was the “Sucesos de Casas Viejas”, an anarchist revolt that broke out in 1933. The liberal uprising was put down by the police, leaving 22 civilian casualties. These tragic events turned Benalup into a symbol of anarchist freedoms and an emblem for the peasant movement. A wide range of leisure activities are available in the local countryside. The “Mirador del Parque”, popularly known as “Tajo de la Sima”, is the ideal spot to watch migratory birds. The area around the Celemín Reservoir is ideal for hiking, playing golf (Benalup Golf & Country Club), or picking wild fruits such as tree strawberries or asparagus. Another interesting activity is walking or cycling along the riverbed to the dried La Janda Lagoon, which is still used as a stopoff point by migratory birds.
THE CRADLE OF FLAMENCO. Flamenco has a long tradition in this Cadiz town, which hosted the 30th “Casas Viejas” National Flamenco Song Competition in 2006. This old competition is held in August and previous invited artists include Juan Peña “El Lebrijano”, El Cigala, Aurora Vargas, Chano Lobato.
Cádiz and its Province - 81
Conil de la Frontera
IDYLLIC BEACHES. Conil’s 14 km of coastline has fine white sand beaches for all tastes, with transparent waters ideal for practising all kinds of water sports in a spectacularly beautiful setting. The long Castilnovo beach lies on the left as you approach the town. Other beaches on that side of Conil are Los Bateles (which has numerous facilities, services, restaurants and bars), La Fontanilla, El Roqueo and Fuente del Gallo, which are more secluded and inviting. The municipality also boasts many charming, paradisiacal coves at the foot of imposing cliffs. Some of the most beautiful coves can be found at Camacho, Pitones, Melchor, Cala del Aceite, El Frailecillo, El Aspero or Cala Encendida.
82 - Cádiz and its Province
Evidence of Phoenician presence is revealed by the numerous archaeological remains that have been discovered in the area, including a brass coin exhibited at the Archaeological Museum of Cadiz or the remains of a necropolis at La Huerta del Sol. It was port of undeniable importance during Roman and Visigoth times. In spite of its strong tourist atmosphere, this white Moorish-style town has successfully retained the flavour and charm of a typical seafaring town. Of the medieval fortifications, the town preserves canvases from its ramparts at the 16th century Puerta de la Villa, as well as a bastion used to fortify these walls. The coastal Watchtowers at Roche, Puerco and Castilnovo (16th-17th Centuries) were used to sight attacking pirates or invaders. And, lastly, the Guzmán Tower, built in the 14th and 15th Centuries, was part of the old castle and served as the nucleus around which the town was built. The Santa Catalina Parish Church and the Town Hall building are situated in Plaza del Castillo. Other noteworthy monuments include the Misericordia Hospital, the Nuestro Padre Jesús Nazareno Hermitage (the town’s patron saint), the Nuestra Señora de las Virtudes Convent and the Espíritu Santo Shrine. Visitors should also try to visit the “Museo de Raíces Conileñas” and attend the fascinating fish auctions at the fish market in the town’s fishing port.
Conil is undoubtedly a select destination for sun and beach tourism. It has one of the best atmospheres in the whole district, especially during summer, thanks partly to the luxurious urbanizations in the surrounding area. Sprawling pine forests, such as the Roche or El Colorado forests, reach some parts of the beaches and thus help to keep them unspoiled. Apart from its important pottery industry (one of the most representative in the province), this farming and fishing town can also be proud of its cuisine, boasting numerous delicious dishes including “morrillo de atún” (fatty parts of tuna), dogfish in marinade, stuffed squid, cuttlefish with potatoes, rice with golden thistle, artichokes or Spanish oyster plant.
Medina Sidonia Set atop a hill called “Cerro del Castillo" (at an altitude of 300 m), Medina Sidonia preserves all its genuine medieval charm. Founded by the Phoenicians, it became an important Roman colony and was also capital of the Muslim district of Sidonia. In the mid-15th Century it became part of the domain of the Dukes of Medina Sidonia.
ROCHE AND EL COLORADO PINE FORESTS. The municipality of Conil has valuable natural spaces, the most noteworthy being the Roche and El Colorado Pine Forests. These are home to numerous endangered species, including a large population of coastal junipers, or the "fartet” (Aphanius iberus), a small hermaphrodite fish found in the River Roche.
Cádiz and its Province - 83
ASIDO CAESARINA. Excavation work at the archaeological site of the old Roman city of “Asido Caesarina” has unearthed remnants of sewers, drains, underground galleries, rooms, dwellings and part of the road running four meters below the street.
84 - Cádiz and its Province
The town was a Declared a Historical Site and was awarded the Prize for the Beautification of Andalusian Towns. The area boasts numerous artistic pieces attesting to its rich past. The Santos Mártires Hermitage is the oldest example of Visigoth art in Andalusia. Medieval remnants include the ruins of the Castle, erected on the old Muslim fortress, and Torrestrella Castle (both dating from the 12th-14th Centuries). Noteworthy medieval arches dating from the period of Muslim occupation and before the conquest include the following arches: Arco de la Pastora (10th Century), Arco del Sol (10th-13th Century) and Arco de Belén (12th-15th Century). The town boasts countless examples of religious architecture. The Santa María la Mayor Coronada Parish Church is a magnificent example of Gothic and Plateresque architecture. Other churches worth visiting are the Victoria, San Juan de Dios and Santiago. There are also numerous convents, the most interesting being the San Cristóbal, Jesús, María y José Convent and the Carmelita del Cuervo montastery (situated in the Los Alcornocales Natural Park). The most interesting civil architecture includes the 17th-Century Mannerist-style Town Hall building, the Duke's Stables, the House of the Enrile (18th Century) and the 19th-Century Market Building. The town is famous for its delicious pastries and one of its pastry products, the "Alfajor de Medina", has been awarded a
Denomination of Origin quality label. This is a cake of Moorish origin prepared using traditional techniques and the finest ingredients: pure bee honey, almonds, hazelnuts, flour, grated bread and spices (coriander, cloves, anise, sesame and cinnamon). This tube-shaped pastry is toasted in inside and has a slightly spicy aroma. Its flavour is reminiscent of a mixture of dry fruits and honey.
Paterna de Rivera Although it has been populated since the Neolithic, most unearthed remains date from the Roman period; interesting discoveries include villas with fabulous mosaic floors, tombs and coins from Gades. In that period, settlers were already enjoying the medicinal properties of the baths at Fuente Santa and Gigonza. As a result, this area became known as the “Valle de los Baños”. Muslim presence has also been confirmed following the discovery of numerous artefacts, such as the Almohad Oil Lamp (12th Century). After the Christian Reconquest, the town came under the domain of the Estate of Ribera, which built the Town Hall-Council building several centuries later in 1503. The town was named “Paterna de Rivera” in honour of the Ribera Family and remained under the domain of Alcalá de los Gazules until it gained independence in 1825.
RANCHES AND STUD FARMS. This traditional farming town is famous for its stock farms of fighting bulls and Arab-Spanish horses. The National Doma Vaquera (Andalusian Dressage) Championship held every year in the municipality should not be missed by dressage enthusiasts. One of the most popular events during the town’s fair are the bull runs in which the bulls are accompanied by riders on horseback after they are released into the streets.
Paterna is famous for being the cradle of the “cante por peteneras”, a Flamenco song style
Cádiz and its Province - 85
named after the “cantaora” (singer) credited with originally singing the song. The town has erected a beautiful monument in her honour and also hosts the National Peteneras Song Competition. The main monuments in this white Andalusian village are the Gothic and Renaissance-style Nuestra Señora de la Hiniesta Parish Church (16th Century) built in the town’s main square, and the 17th century House of Don Perafán de Ribera, a beautiful example of popular domestic architecture.
San José del Valle Its origins date back to the Muslim occupation, specifically to a site called “Hisn Tanbul” where a defensive fortress was built on an ancient Roman settlement. The development of the modern town is closely related to religious orders that settled in this area in search of peace and retreat, thus attracting the first colonists.
San José del Valle lies on the crossroads between the White Towns Route and the Bull Route. Approximately 6 km from the town centre stands Gigonza Castle (13th-14th Centuries). This is one of the most important and best conserved monuments in the area. Although it is a medieval fortress, it occupies the site of the town of Saguntia, which was founded by the Turdetans and was later annexed to Rome as a stipendiary town. Very near the castle are the ruins of the Gigonza Baths. Their sulphurous waters made them very popular in the late 19th Century and early 20th Century. Paterna de Rivera has an enviable environmental heritage.
