Hola Jerez!
Located in the province of Cádiz, Jerez de la Frontera is a land of wine and the cradle of flamenco. Its history and economy are closely linked to the wine it produces, the world-famous "jerez" or sherry. This explains why there are so many "bodegas", architectural gems themselves, like González Byass, whose legendary Tío Pepe logo is a perfect symbol for the city. But Jerez is more than wine and the art of flamenco. It's also the land of the Carthusian horse, fighting bull and Jerez Formula 1 Circuit. If you take one of our cheap flights to Jerez de la Frontera don't miss the incredible horse shows at the Royal Andalucian School of Equestrian Art and the Hierro del Bocado stud farm.
As if all that weren't enough to entertain visitors, Jerez is also a monumental city. From the Cathedral to the city's collection of Renaissance and Baroque palaces like the Dávila, Pérez Luna and Bertemati, to the Alcazar, an Arabic citadel from the 12th century and a rare example of Almohad architecture in the Iberian Peninsula, you'll find plenty to gaze at. The Alcazar houses the 17th-century Villavicencio Palace, whose main tower, the tallest in the city, contains a "camera obscura", a set of lenses and mirrors that provides a real-time bird's eye view of everything happening outside, in the city's streets and squares.
