Of course, you will have all the time you need to take all the best photographs you want to keep fond memories of Cadiz.
A large 18th century building with a clever mix of three styles: Baroque, Renaissance and Neoclassical, its imperial splendour envelops you. Many indigenous people nicknamed it New Cathedral because History shows that it was built on the site of an old cathedral. Its construction lasted 116 years. Its rear part faces the sea and with its famous dome of golden tiles, it is one of the most beautiful and typical images of Cadiz that thousands of photographs have fixed for eternity.
Before entering the market, we will pass for the Plaza de las Flores, one of the most typical corners of Cadiz, which owes its name to its many kiosks with flowers of all colours. A few hundred metres from the Plaza de las Flores, the market will be open to us. It was in October 2009 that the central market in Cadiz reopened after a long rehabilitation that lasted several years. At the end of the work, it kept its original appearance. The market has a centenary of stalls divided into fruit and vegetables, fish and seafood, meat, general food, bakery and pastry, olives. In addition, every day of the week, it houses the Gastronomic Corner, a privileged place to taste the products of gypsy cuisine and national or international gastronomy.
We will leave the market behind us to join the Tavira Tower. Heritage of Cadiz (name given to the tower for the inhabitants) is the highest of all the defence towers of the 18th century that still continue to be spread throughout the city. LA Torre de Tavira’s mission was to protect the Port of Cadiz.
The Tavira Tower has a total of 173 steps to climb to visit its 3 bedrooms and reach the viewpoint, from where you will enjoy a spectacular panoramic view of the city and the bay.
Located on an islet of Caleta beach, we will go towards the walls of Catalina Castle which was once the first defensive rampart of Cadiz; now, inside, there is an electric lighthouse that alerts the bteaux of the proximity of the coast.
La Caleta beach will then take us to San Sebastian Castle where we will finish our visit before d´aller in two local taverns to taste in each one a tapa and a drink of your choice.
NOTE: If you like adventure, we also recommend a 100% local alternative: Take the train from Seville. Don’t worry, your guide is waiting for you at Cadiz station:)
