Cadiz is a seafaring city with 3,000 years of history. It is the southern most provincial capital in Spain . The walls of the "Puertas de Tierra" clearly separate the modern area from the more historical, older part; made up of narrow streets, small squares and colourful local areas, such as "La Viña", an old fishing district where one can try the famous "pescaíto frito" (fried fish); or the "Mentidero" or "Santa María" districts, the true home of flamenco singing; or such as the San Juan de Dios Square, or the "El Pópulo" neighbourhood which was originally an old medieval village. Most of the principal monuments can be found in the old part of the city, which is also ideal for shopping. There is also La Caleta beach, situated on a reef and bordred by the Castles of Santa Catalina and San Sebastian.
