Special Places # 117

1 – Cargo ships from all the world ready to enter the Cadiz Port to unload, also to load. View at sunset in this busy port.

5 – Inside the walls of the fortfied Old City, just around a plaza where famous composer of Music Manuel de Falla was born.

6 – Other installations for the Port, also plenty of Industry, modern housing, and business.

7 – La Catedral Vieja ( The Old Cathedral). Cadiz actually has two cathedrals that are located just a few minutes walk from one another. The Catedral Vieja (old cathedral), whose official name is Parroquia de Santa Cruz, was built by King Alfonso X in 1262. It is believed that is was erected directly on top of a mosque from the time when the Moors ruled the Spanish peninsula.
