The Spanish city of Huelva is the capital of the province of Huelva in the autonomous region of Andalusia in the south west of Spain. The city, and its port, lies on the Gulf of Cadiz, where the River Odiel and River Tinto meet. The city's long history dates back to around 3,000 BC and many Roman artefacts have been uncovered in the city which bears testament to the Roman mint that was once located in the city.
Visitors to Huelva will find many things to do and see in the city and the surrounding area. There are a number of sites that have an association with the explorer Christopher Columbus which include Moguer, Palos de la Frontera and the Rabida Monastery. In addition to these sites there are fine examples of Baroque architecture to be found in the Condado part of the city. One of the highlights of the city's cultural calendar is the Pilgrimage of el Rocio, which has been declared of International Tourist Interest.
The ferry port at Huelva is located in the Exterior Port and is accessible via a free bus service that takes travellers from the port to Huelva city centre on arrival and from the city centre to the port for departures.
The Spanish city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is the capital of the island of Gran Canaria, in the Canary Islands. The city lies in the north eastern part of the island and sits across two bays and a number of lovely beaches. The city was founded in 1478 and has an important cultural and historical heritage which seems to be centred in the district of Vegueta which is the oldest part of the city and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1990. The city is also home to one of the most important ports, Puerto de la Luz, in Europe which helps to give the city a lovely cosmopolitan feel. There are many things to see and do in the city but a short distance away from the city's centre visitors will find lovely beaches and crystal clear waters.
From the city's port ferry services provide connections to several islands (Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, La Palma, Tenerife) and also the south of Spain (Huelva and Cadiz).
