Seville
Just an hour away on a fast empty motorway is the beautiful
city of Seville, home of the largest Christian church in the
world (look for the certificate from the Guinness Book of
Records!). Described rather inadequately by Byron as a
pleasant city, famous for oranges and women, Seville is the
home of Carmen, Don Juan and Figaro, as well as offering one of
the best selection of tapas bars in Spain!

Cadiz
Cadiz is the oldest recorded city in Europe, dating back
to 1100 BC when the Phoenicians arrived and settled. The old
town with its golden-domed cathedral, its grand open squares
and high turreted houses looks much the same today as it did
in the 17th and 18th centuries, when Cadiz was a thriving
international port, with trading links with the Americas.
