About three times the size of Monaco, dangling like a severely inflamed appendix off the Spanish Andalusia and winking at Morocco, across a narrow strait. That's about how you can best situate Gibraltar on the map. The peninsula with the well-known rock is British longer than Belgium has existed. And if it depends on 99% of its population, it will remain so. To the great dismay of Spain, which has been eyeing this British overseas territory for centuries. We visited Gibraltar during a short city trip of 48 hours and discovered an exotic piece of the UK in the Mediterranean, a delightful mix of English and Mediterranean vibes.
