Jerez
de la Frontera is also known as "Soul of
Andalusia", and it is the town of wine, horses
and flamenco.
You
can reach Jerez directly by air. The airport is located
beside the motorway.
The "Horse" is one of the most important
symbols of "Jerez". The long historical
tradition of horses was in the 15th century on the
hight. At that time the Carthusian Monks brought the
famous "cartujano" breed horses to Jerez,
which are still famous until today.
In
many horse-riding events you can admire this noble
race.
The
"Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art"
(la Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Ecuestre) and the
"Carthusian Stud" (Yeguado de la Cartuja
- Hierro del Bocado) offer weekly events and daily
guided tours.
