Cadiz (Spanish: Cádiz, pronounced: [ˈkaðiθ], locally: [ˈkaðis] ( listen) or [ˈka.i]; Phoenician: גדר, Gader; Arabic: قَادِس ) is a city and port in southwestern Spain. It is the capital of the homonymous province, one of eight which make up the autonomous community of Andalusia.
Cadiz, the oldest continuously-inhabited city in the Iberian Peninsula and possibly all southwestern Europe, has been a principal home port of the Spanish Navy since the accession of the Spanish Bourbons in the 18th century. The city is a member of the Most Ancient European Towns Network. It is also the site of the University of Cadiz.
Despite its unique site — on a narrow slice of land surrounded by the sea — Cadiz is, in most respects, a typically Andalusian city with a wealth of attractive vistas and well-preserved historical landmarks. The older part of Cadiz, within the remnants of the city walls, is commonly referred to as the Old Town (in Spanish, Casco Antiguo). It is characterized by the antiquity of its various quarters (barrios), among them El Pópulo, La Viña, and Santa María, which present a marked contrast to the newer areas of town. While the Old City's street plan consists of narrow winding alleys connecting large plazas, newer areas of Cadiz typically have wide avenues and more modern buildings. In addition, the city is dotted by numerous parks where exotic plants flourish, including giant trees supposedly brought to Spain by Columbus from the New World.

She was a woman with a magnetic smile pointed at me like a compass at night
I can't imagine what the world would be like without her sunset to brighten up the sky
Walked down her streets and the cool shadows in which I lingered before bursting into light
Opened her door I was beckoned inside into a fairy tale I climbed up to her heights
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
I walk down her steps and the centuries echo my footfalls bouncing round the crypt
I hear the waves like the beat of her heart down by the shoreline past and present slips
Away Cadiz Falla she is
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
Show me a reason give me a sign
We could be leaving all this behind
So if a songbird flies from the north down to the island he'll be holding her hand
And he'll be looking for the house that is still down by the shoreline and she'll understand
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
Show me a reason give me a sign
