For people who love visiting places of architectural, historical or cultural interest there are:
- Ibiza city's heart, the Old Town of Ibiza also called D'alt Vila, built in 1554, and surrounded by various
walls of which some are only partly excavated.The imposing walls visible today are the product of the Italian
architect Calvi in the 16th century. These walls were built so firm , that now it is one of the two only
fortifications in Europe that still has it’s complete original structure.

- The Harbour of Ibiza Town is a quiet and peaceful place in winter and in summer it’s the place to see and
be seen, this surely is the promenade chosen by most drag queens.

- In Ibiza's harbour one can't mis seeing the only statue in the whole world honoring pirates, 'Corsair
Obelisk' - Homenaje a los Corsarios, who played a very important part in Ibiza's history.

- Various caves such as the large and famous Cova d'es Culleram, discovered in 1907 and Caves C´an
Marca, over 100.000 years old, Ses Fontanelles Caves with remains of ancient paintings, Es Cuieram
Cave dedicated to the Goddess Tanit and Santa Caves Ibiza which contains impressive stalactites.

- But don´t forget to visit The Puig des Molins Nekropolis one of the largest and best preserved
underground tombs in the world, left here by Phoenicians and then there is Cova de ses Llegostes, a
natural cave, open to the sea, which now houses an aquarium.

- Las Salinas - Ibiza's Salt flats were of immens importance to medieval Ibiza, nowadays the interesting
remains rest in a natural reserve which forms an important refuge for all kinds of birds, including flamingos.

- Authentic villages like San Jose, Santa Gertrudis, San Rafael and San Carlos still have the beautiful
historical finca's - original farmhouses with extremely thick walls, a perfect defense against hot summers,
all painted white just as they always used to do.

- Many of the hippies that chose Ibiza for their homestead and nowadays run small businesses on the island
sell their art- and craftswork on regularly held markets, which are very enjoyable to visit.

- Beautiful, uninhabited little islands, Canjaro and Espalmador, famous mystical rockisland Es Vedra
and sister island Es Vedranell, are approachable by boat only! A must see!!!

- Ibiza's lighthouses and in particular the Botafoc lighthouse - Faro de Botafoc - are famous for
enjoying amazing panoramic views.

- Around 1880 the first windmill was built in the Ses Salines and by the time they ended operating them
already 180 of them covered the island. Most of them are ruines today but some of them were restored
and declared Heritage of Cultural Interest as is Molí d’en Toni Joan, Molí des Porxet and Molí
des Puig d’en Valls. They all stand symbol of great balearic rural architecture.

Most of these Ibiza sightseeing examples will take whole day to explore all of its beauty and also offer a healthsome walk through Ibiza's quieter rural inlands that are an sightseeing object on its own.
Enjoy all of Ibiza sightseeing in between sunbathing and partying, but take time for a cultural dip before leaving this amazingly beautiful island with its free spirit and many secrets, myths and legends..
