Un arco muy bonito y muy bien conservado en donde se pasa de una calle a otra.

En el Arco de Pópulo, en el barrio más antiguo de la milenaria ciudad de Cádiz, se encuentra una placa conmemorativa que dice: HOMENAJE DE LA CIUDAD DE CADIZ JORGE JUAN Y ANTONIO DE ULLOA EN EL CCL ANIVERSARIO DE SU PARTIDA AL VIRREINATO DEL PERU PARA LA MEDICION DEL GRADO DE MERIDIANO

西班牙加的斯（Cádiz）坐拥壮丽的自然风光：大西洋沿岸的金色沙滩连绵起伏，如La Caleta海滩；崎岖的悬崖与蔚蓝海水碰撞出特拉法尔加角（Cabo Trafalgar）的磅礴；附近洛斯阿尔科诺卡莱斯自然公园（Los Alcornocales）的原始栓皮栎林和湿地，是观鸟者的天堂。阳光、海风与原始地貌交织，宛如一幅野性地中海画卷(5月8日)
