Gibraltar is located at the south of the Iberian Peninsula, next to Spain. It was part of Spain more than 300 years ago and nowadays is a British overseas territory.
The architecture is British style, and all the stores are at the Main Street. The cabins are red like in England.
Gibraltar is also called "The Rock" because most of the place is a giant rock.
You can cross the border walking through the only airport in the world shared by pedestrians, planes and vehicles.
There are a colony of free macaques living at the rock. They are social with humans but you must not touch them because they are going to bit you for sure.
It is a must to take a photo of yourself with one of them. Try it!
Hire a local guide it will help you to visit all the tourism attractions fast and easy and it will help you to take this photo of you with the macaque.
There is a view point where you can see Africa!
Inside the rock there is a giant cave called St. Michael's cave. This cave is also a concert hall.
Locals can speak English and Spanish and sometimes they mix both languages. They have their own identity as a "Gibraltarians". They really like being a British overseas territory.
