<\/figure>\n\n\n\nThere is an app that comes with the cable car ticket that gives an audio tour at the top, where you can also get a pot of English tea!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other Attractions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n Under the jutting limestone cliffs, tunnels run, begun hundreds of years ago as defensive works against sieges by French and Spanish forces determined to wrest control from the British. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nThey were added to during World War Two and are now open to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gibraltar is also home to pioneering conservation work in the Alameda Wildlife Park which rescues illegally trafficked animals as well as taking care of endangered local species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Beaches<\/h3>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s not all history, scenery, and cups of tea in Gibraltar. The territory is also home to several spectacular beaches, each with its own particular character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\nCatalan Beach, is scenic, and peaceful, having resisted overdevelopment as it had remained principally a fishing village until very recently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Playa de Levante is closest to all of Gibraltar\u2019s best eateries, and facing East, it gets the most sun too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At one end is the international airport, ideal for plane spotters, or those simply enjoying the novelty of sunbathing that close to a runway!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s also the top spot for fans of fish and chips and a cold pint of English ale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
