About the artwork

This urban, Andalusian motif was taken on 25 August 2025 with the NIKON D800 camera (lens: NIKKOR).

The El Pópulo neighbourhood adjoins La Viña to the east and is also part of the old town. Apart from the typical regional restaurants, which often occupy the streets with their seats, there are many historic buildings to admire here.
The thick stone gates were the point at which Christopher Columbus left the European continent for the second time in 1493. The Cathedral of Cádiz and the Roman theatre also date from even earlier centuries, giving this part of the city an unmistakable flair.
As lively as the alleyways are, you can find a quiet spot here amidst the ancient buildings.

Cádiz, the oldest city in Western Europe, is located on the Atlantic Ocean in south-west Andalusia. Cádiz is the capital and largest city of the province of the same name in the south-west of Andalusia.

Particularly impressive is the old town of Cádiz, which is completely surrounded by the sea and can only be reached by car, bus or train via a narrow headland.

A visit to Cádiz is a wonderful combination of sightseeing and beach. With the cathedral, numerous museums and historical buildings, there are plenty of exciting sights waiting to be discovered in the old town. There are also some small beaches, such as the famous Playa de la Caleta. The "new" part of the city is home to the kilometres of sandy beaches for which the Costa de la Luz is so popular.
