Spanish Courses in Andalusia
Cádiz is a coastal city in southwestern Spain, in the
region of Andalusia, and is the capital of the
province of Cádiz. During the Age of Exploration
the city had another rennaissance: Columbus sailed
from Cadiz on his second voyage in 1495, and the
city later became the home port of the Spanish
treasure fleet.
Sir Francis Drake destroyed a Spanish fleet in its harbor in April 1587. In the Anglo-Spanish War Admiral Robert Blake blockaded Cádiz from 1655 and 1657, during which one of his captains, Richard Stayner destroyed most of the Spanish treasure fleet.
Other facts: Cádiz was the seat of the liberal Cortes fighting Joseph I of Spain in the Peninsula war; the Spanish Constitution of 1812 was proclaimed there. Cádiz is famous by its carnival with Chirigotas (amateur satirical choruses) competing for a prize.Since the fifties a powerline crosses the bay of Cadiz. The pylons on which they are mounted are from unique design.
