Cadiz is located in the Andalucia region of Spain and is the capital of the Cadiz Province. It is one of the oldest cities in Western Europe and is most famous for its large Carnaval, which features lots of people, costumes, dancing, and loud music and generally takes place the weekend before Ash Wednesday. Students taking Spanish courses in Cadiz should not miss the opportunity to try some of the most fresh and delicious fish and shellfish in the world when they study here. They may even want to wash their meal down with some Fino, a very dry sherry wine only found in the area. Students can explore the stone walls of the city and the forts of San Sebastian and San Catalina during their visit; these ancient forts are open to the public and well worth exploring. Students interested in attending a Spanish school in Cadiz, may want to head to the Central Market as well to speak with the locals and catch a great view from the Torre Tavira, where one of the towers holds a great view of the entire city below.
