The most romantic corner of Cádiz
The Alameda is the most romantic corner of Cádiz. Stroll through gardens, look out from the balustrade to the Bay of Cadiz and the remains of the ancient Carmen baths, sit in the shade of an ancient Ficus, contemplate houses of the bourgeoisie, near the Carmelite church (XVIII century), see the Marquis of Comillas monument, find busts and statues of illustrious gaditanos between vegetation and especially, enjoy spectacular views. Don't miss the booths overlooking the sea on the balustrade, streetlights, Sevillian style benches and the stronghold of Candlemas (XVI century). The restaurant bar Sloop is a jewel of Cádiz gastronomy.
The Alameda, as it is known in Cadiz, is undoubtedly a real balcony to the sea. "I don't know they have flowers, the flowers of my Alameda that when the waves break, break pa look out to see them, heralding their romance butterflies and bees. Winking in the afternoon sea, in every ray of sunshine. May is planting passion, two bodies in Balaustra swear their love. Shut the wind and tide that has dormio the sparrow. So you, I have more Sentio dao ay, ay, ay, in much chance, no escaping my singing, as a child I carry in my heart. Oh my Alameda, balcony divine envy those pigeons that leaning out the new Carmen admire your beauty". Letter from Antonio Bustos, for the troupe Cane and Wicker, 1988.
