Cádiz

September 06, 2020

From Cádiz, an ancient port city in the Andalucia region of southwestern Spain. The home of the Spanish Navy, the port boomed in the 16th-century as a base for exploration and trade. It has more than 100 watchtowers, including the iconic Torre Tavira, which was traditionally used for spotting ships. On the waterfront is the domed, 18th-century Cádiz Cathedral (shown on the card), featuring baroque and neoclassical elements.

Thanks so much Szilvi!
