Little travel house is in Gibraltar!

Gibraltar at 8am… and it’s STILL dark! There’s a fascinating history behind it.

One of the quirks of travelling through Spain and Gibraltar is discovering that the sun doesn’t always follow the clock!

Although Gibraltar sits at the southern tip of Spain, right beside the Atlantic and Mediterranean, it follows Central European Time. In October, that can mean surprisingly dark mornings, even at 8am.

But here’s the fascinating historical twist.

Did you know Spain changed its clocks during World War II?

In March 1940, General Francisco Franco’s government moved mainland Spain’s clocks forward by one hour, from Greenwich Mean Time to Central European Time. This brought Spain into line with the time used by Germany and much of continental Europe.

The decision has often been linked to Franco’s political alignment with N**i Germany, although historians point out that the reasons were more complicated than simply following Hi**er. Spain never switched back after the war.

The result? Spain’s clocks are an hour ahead of the time its geography would naturally suggest, helping explain those late sunrises and famously late evenings.

And here in Gibraltar, you can experience the same time-zone quirk while standing at the gateway between Europe and Africa.

A little travel history to go with your morning coffee!

And the reason Gibraltar is a British overseas territory is a whole other story!

Little Travel House is in Segovia, Spain

Some places leave you wondering how people managed to build such incredible things centuries ago. Segovia is certainly one of them!

The highlight is the magnificent Roman aqueduct, an engineering marvel built over 2,000 years ago. Constructed with 25000 blocks of granite and without mortar, its enormous granite blocks have stood the test of time, with the aqueduct once carrying water into the city from the surrounding mountains. It is a remarkable reminder of Roman ingenuity and engineering.

Segovia also has a fairytale connection. Its beautiful Alcázar, perched dramatically on a rocky outcrop, is said to have inspired Walt Disney’s design for the castle in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. With its turrets, towers and storybook appearance, it’s easy to see why!

Add in the charming old town, cobbled streets and delicious traditional cuisine, and Segovia is a wonderful day trip from Madrid.

Spain has so much more to offer than its famous cities and beaches. Sometimes, the most memorable experiences are found in places steeped in history and a little bit of magic.

Thinking about exploring Spain? Little Travel House can help you plan a trip filled with unforgettable experiences.
