Cadiz, Spain
– A Walk Along the Sea Wall – Part 2
Toward the
end of the walk along the sea wall, there were a few more interesting sights to
see. I’ll cover the “in between” sights
in the next couple of posts, but for now…..
La Palma Spa
When one has
a “spa day” in Cadiz, it’s really something special! We didn’t go inside, but the low white
buildings, the walkway out toward the water, and the round domed building at
the end all seem to be part of the spa.
The area below it is a popular beach that you’ll get a better view of in
another post.
Cadiz
Cathedral
Altho we
didn’t have time to explore the inside of this cathedral, it houses a museum
inside containing jewels from the New World.
Moorish
Influence
Here’s a
closer view of some of the towers of the Cathedral, with the Moorish influence
evident. It is possible to climb up to
the top, altho we were warned NOT to time any such climb so that we’d reach the
top at noon…..for obvious reasons, as the bells still toll!
Cool Architecture
I just loved
the look of the dark streetlights and the white of the cathedral tower, against
that fabulous blue sky! We were very
lucky in that most every day (except one), the weather cooperated wonderfully
with us!
Bell Tower
and Colorful Roof
I had to
share this very cool bell tower with you!
I just loved the pattern and colors of the roof of the tower! It almost seemed whimsical when compared to
the formality of the cathedral it was next to!
Enjoy!
