Cadiz

Spain · Andalusia

Cadiz is a city in Spain and the capital of the province of Cadiz in the autonomous community of Andalusia. It is located in the southwest of the Iberian Peninsula off the Atlantic Ocean separated from neighbouring San Fernando by a narrow isthmus. One of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in Western Europe, Cadiz was founded by the Phoenicians as a trading post. In the 18th century, the port in the Bay of Cadiz consolidated itself as the main harbour of mainland Spain during the Spanish Empire, enjoying the virtual monopoly of trade with the Americas until 1778.
