Las Palmas, officially named Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, is a city and capital on the Spanish island of Gran Canaria in the Canary islands. The city is roughly 150 km from the African coast and is located in the north east part of Gran Canaria. The city's climate, warm, dry summers and winters that aren't too cold, make it a popular destination for tourists.
The city was founded in 1478 by Juan Rejon and has many things to see and do including a selection of theatre, cinema, opera, music concerts, museums and galleries to enjoy. Two of the most popular cultural events held in the city are the Canary Island Music Festival and the International Film Festival. The most important historical buildings in the city can be found in the Vegueta part of the city where some of the buildings have been standing for 500 years. These include the Chapel of San Antonio Abad, the Plaza de Santa Ana which is bordered by the Casas Consistoriales, the Casa Regental, the Obispado and Santa Ana Cathedral.
Las Palmas is the main ferry port on the island. As the island is in the middle of the archipelago, Las Palmas ferry port provides connections to several islands (Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, La Palma, Tenerife) and also the south of Spain (Huelva and Cadiz).
Located in the western part of Andalusia, in southern Spain, is the town of Huelva. The town lies on the Costa de la Luz (the Coast of Light) on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean and therefore has many beaches for visitors to enjoy along with a number of pretty little fishing villages and a countryside filled with pine and juniper. The coastal area around the town stretches as far as the National Park of Donana which has been declared a Biosphere Reserve and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Popular attractions in the town include the Baroque cathedral in the Condado part of the town and the Columbus Route of sites that are all connected to the explorer Christopher Columbus. A popular event held in the town is the Pilgrimage of el Rocio which has been declared of International Tourist Interest.
The town's port has two sections. The inner port, which is located in the town's centre, was built in the 1970's, and the outer port which is where most vessels dock.
