Gibraltar
If your a traveler interested in natural history. Gibraltar is the place you would want to visit.
Honestly, i really have no idea where it was found. I need to seek Mr. Google’s helping hand for me to know more about this beautiful country.
Well, one thing is for sure, Gibraltar is located in Europe which is a British overseas territory. No wonder, they can freely go to Great Britain whenever they wanted. Their country also lies near Andalusia, Spain which i found very awesome.
Gibraltar governs its own affairs though some powers, such as defence and foreign relations, remain the responsibility of the UK Government which means the Queen of England has its shares and say on such delicate matters.
There are different places to visit at Gibraltar and among them are;
- Rock of Gibraltar – one of the famous tourist destination. 1.6 miles from the city centre.
- Apes Den – you get a chance to see monkeys just like it my postcard picture.
- St. Michael Caves – a thousand years cave that composed hundred of beautiful caves with limestones.
- Gibraltar Museaum - want to know more about Gibraltar? This is the best place to learn about their history, culture and other interesting ideas.
- Grand Casemates Square – walk through history.
- Catalan Bay – walked and enjoy the beauty of the beach.
- Shrine of our Lady of Europa – very interesting shrine but unfortunately , it was open for a limited time in a week.
I wish, i get the chance to see this beautiful country someday.
