The Rock of Gibraltar:
The Rock of Gibraltar has been an important piece of land for centuries. It’s first claim to fame was that it was where two huge, skyscraper-sized rocks stood, almost like giant pillars. These were called by the ancient people, the Pillars of Hercules. One of the pillars has long since washed away, but the other remained. It is after this pillar and the body of water around it (called Gibraltar) that the area is named. This area has been held by many different countries including, Arabia, Spain, France, and England. Going through the border Spain - Gibraltar
Nothing extraordinary is happening on the border to Gibraltar. When you enter, you first see a Spanish officer who is just checking the availability of your documents. In the next step you are greeted by the customs officer of Gibraltar, who is checking your eligibility to enter. If you are a citizen of the EU or have a passport of one of those countries that don’t need a visa for the UK, you can easily pass by. If you are a citizen of a country that requires a visa to the UK, it is a bit more complicated for you.
Fun Facts about the Rock of Gibraltar
If you are lost and wandering in the Mediterranean Sea, you can see the Rock of Gibraltar even if you are several miles away from it. Why? It is because the Rock of Gibraltar is as high as 426 meters. It protrudes out of the Mediterranean Sea the way candles stand upon a birthday cake. The Rock of Gibraltar is made of limestone which is the material that companies use to make cement, so it is very strong.
