Gibraltar
This strategic rocky promontory guarding the narrow strait of the Mediterranean has been an enviable possession for centuries. Well worth a visit is St Michael’s Cave, a part of complex interlinked caverns, which is used for concerts and ballet. Another popular tourist attraction is the cable car trip to the top of the Rock, stopping at the Apes’ Den on the way.
