The Costa de la Luz / Cadiz Province region
A famous writer described the city as a “salty clearness”. Cádiz, which was known as Gades at the Roman period, is the oldest European city. Despite its peninsular character, it is the capital of a frontier land, which from the steep peaks of its mountains falls into the sea. Nature and man, in a perfect symbiosis, making up a diversified landscape full of beauty and charm: Spanish fir groves, cork oaks, pine groves, vineyards, as well as productive farming lands housing white villages of magnificent architecture and a rich varied gastronomy.
The Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean extend throughout a littoral of 260 km of sandy beaches, from the Guadalquivir mouth to the beaches bordering the province of Malaga. To the South, at the end of Tarifa the “Oceanian Sea” and the “Mare Nostrum” melt its waters together, fusing gently the shorelines of both continents.
The city of Cádiz, tree thousand years old: Historians affirm that Cádiz was founded over three thousand years ago and that it is the oldest inhabited city in Europe . Since then, it has experienced many changes, with eras of expansion and decline. A seafaring, trading town, particularly lively and vigorous, Cádiz surprises and appeals to the visitor at first sight due to its particular urban desing which is so rational, with straight, narrow streets, towering facades with fine wrought ironwork and gardens of great botanical variety by the sea, which surrounds and encompasses the town making it almost an island.
