Cadiz is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities, founded around 1104BC as "Gadir" by the Phoenicians. In their myths the founder was Melqart (aka Hercules).
When we arrived we were treated by a beautiful sunset. We explored:
• Museo de Cadiz - incl. Phoenician Sarcophagi and a statue of Emperor Trajan
• Mercado Central en Cadiz - to forage some fresh paella, polvo ensalada (squid salad) and salmorejo de amondeis (gazpacho)
• Ayuntamiento de Gadir - Phoenician remains including fish salting basin
• The old Roman city - including Roman walls, aquaduct and theater
• Castillo de San Sebastian and Puerta de la Caleta - set of James Bond - Die Another Day
Christopher Columbus also set sail from Cadiz on two of his four voyages.Baca lagi
