New Golf Frontiers
JEREZ
With the increasing popularity of “away days” for many of
the Costa del Sol clubs and for those looking to try something different the
new golfing frontiers such as Cadiz, Huelva, Seville, Jerez or AlmerĂa
are proving to be extremely popular for two, three or four night stays.
The most popular trip at the moment is to JĂ©rez., via the
famous “Ruta del Toro” through the fabulous Parque Los Alcornocales. With
a visit to the Andalucian Horses show at the Royal Equestrian School of
Jeréz “Como bailan los Caballos Andaluces”, a guided visit to Bodega “Rey
Fernando de Castilla”, with an explanation about how the famous sherry,
wine and brandy of Jerez is made – not forgetting a tasting of a
variety of tapas and wines as well as a great night at a live Flamenco
show at La Taberna Flamenca in Santiago Square, the birthplace of this
spectacular art Jeréz certainly has something for everyone.!
The
artistic charms of Jeréz have been well preserved and the town's wide,
well-kept streets are full of monuments.
The
most notable feature of the town centre is the well proportioned Baroque
Cathedral, with a beautiful tower,
five naves and
fine pictorial illustrations. The palaces are another great attraction:
the Cabildo, houses the
Archaeological Museum
which stands witness
to the history of the district. Almost all the palaces such as those of
Domeq, Ponce de León, Dávila or Riquelme have exquisite patios and
Baroque facades.
Jeréz invites the visitor to stroll through its streets
and squares with tall palm trees alternating with flat, winding streets overlooked
by towers or bell gables and the palaces. The town also possesses a good
Zoo and original museums, such as the Clock Museum while not forgetting
the Jerez Motor Racing Circuit!. The spectrum of hotels and restaurants
offers its own very particular gastronomy which just has to be tried
and has everything from kidneys
in sherry sauce" to "oxtail stew".
