LA LÍNEA DE LA CONCEPCIÓN HOTELS - CADIZ PROVINCE, SPAIN |
|
| La Línea de la Concepción
(more often referred to as La Línea) is a town in Spain, in the
province of Cádiz in Andalucia. It lies on the eastern isthmus of
the Bay of Gibraltar on the border with the British overseas territory
of Gibraltar, with which it has close economic and social links. It is
situated on the sandy isthmus which unites the Rock of Gibraltar with the
coast in the eastern flank of the Bay of Gibraltar, between Sierra Carbonera
and the Rock of Gibraltar.
The town derives its name firstly
from the línea or boundary line separating Spain from Gibraltar
and secondly from the Immaculate Conception of Mary, the Mother of Jesus.
Its people are called in Spanish linenses. |
 |
| The people of La Línea
have traditionally found work in Gibraltar, from the days in the 18th century
when Gibraltar was an important naval port. This stopped with the total
closure of the border by the Spanish government between 1969 and 1982 as
a result of the dispute originating in 1960s Franco era between Britain
and Spain regarding the sovereignty of Gibraltar. Since the border was
fully reopened in 1985 a number of Gibraltarians have again moved to La
Línea, where property prices and the cost of living are much lower
and there is a wider range of shopping, leisure facilities and entertainment.
La Línea is a major supplier
of fruit and vegetables to Gibraltar; other industries include the manufacture
of cork, liquor, and fish paste. It is also had an important military garrison
with substantial fortifications and a port. |

| This
is about Rota, Spain by Susie Kay
This is about Rota, Andalucia. If
you have never been to Rota, then you have really missed out. Rota is beautifully
situated right on the coast, in a part of the Costa de la Luz not yet very
well known to the British.
Rota started out its days as a tiny
white fishing village and is steeped in history. It was originally founded
by the Phoenicians at the same time as they founded Cadiz, the capital
of this Province and it was originally called 'Astaroth'. When the Romans
took over this part of Spain they changed the name to 'Speculum Rotae'
and then when the Moors conquered, they changed it again to 'Rabita Rutta'.
Now we are just known as Rota and have a town that is growing more and
more attractive day by day... read more |
