transportation question
by Wembly
My family and I (5 total) will be visiting Cadiz during Holy Week, 2010. We are renting a flat near the University at the far north end of Cadiz. We will likely be arriving by bus. What is the best way to get the five of us from the bus station to our flat? Another question: I will need to get from our flat to Zona Franca to rent a car. What bus would I take to get to Zona Franca?
Many thanks.

Pedmar,
Thank you for your help. At this time I do not know which bus station we will be arriving at. We will be travelling from Sevilla.
Thanks again.

Sorry I'm too late to reply to your question Wembly but Pedmar, to update you, all buses now leave Cadiz from a new (I think it's permanent) bus station right next to the train station. Much more simple!
Travel Tips for Cadiz
A busy port
by bugalugs
Cadiz became a bustling seaport under the Romans but then fell into decline until the 16th century when the 'New World' of America was discovered and ships sailed their trade from here. So much so that Sir Francis Drake attacked Cadiz when he wanted to control the trade to the Americas and he did hold of Napoleans army here.
The photo is of a Danish ship that was in the port for some kind of fair. It would have been busy with all these kinds of sailing ships at one time, however although this was an old ship with sails, hidden in the masts you could see their radar equipment!
The Carnival Feasts
by SirRichard
This is the main feast in Cadiz. During one week, around the end of February, all the city's activities stop to perform the big Carnival week.
The main activities take place in the city old center. People (almost everyone in town) get disguised, mostly at nights both weekends. Sundays at noon there is a show of singing Groups in the Central Market (Plaza de la Libertad).

One explanation is that it is a very badly pronounced 'looking down' though related to it's meaning of 'keep an eye out' it seems a little strange. I prefer the Spanglish translation of looking give (doy is give in Spanish), like to mean give a look!

With the Atlantic Ocean on three sides, blue skies and interesting, ancient street, Cadiz affords many wonderful photo opportunities. Be sure you're prepared with the appropriate photo equipment.

WHITE ROOFS
If you have a chance, don't miss the view from the roofs in Cadiz. In the old part a great part of everyday life takes place on the roofs. A good place to have a look at this 'superior' level of life in Cadiz is the Torre Tavira
