Cadiz City in Spain

We made a mistake with the original pic as there is a Cadiz in Spain (pronounced as Ca-deeth) is the capital of the province of the same name in the Spanish region of Andalusia. It is on a tiny peninsula on the southern tip of Spain. Established some 3000 years ago, Cadiz is said to be the oldest city in Europe. This port city is almost completely surrounded by water and is connected to the mainland by a thin strip of land. It is a city with a distinct island atmosphere interlaced with flamenco music, the aroma of Andalusian cuisine and the laughter and chatter of the fun-loving Gaditanos as the locals are called. Cadiz offers a colourful mix of history, culture and old-world architecture vis-a-vis modern edifices. Its rich history is evident in its historical buildings, colonial churches and quaint plazas.
