San Miguel Tower, Cabo de Gata-Nijar Natural Park, Almeria, Andalusia, Spain
The San Miguel Tower, or Torreon de San Miguel, an 18th century watchtower in San Miguel, in the Cabo de Gata-Nijar Natural Park, Almeria, Andalusia, Southern Spain. It was built by order of Fernando VI in 1756 to protect Almadraba de Monteleva and its valuable salt flats. The park includes the Sierra del Cabo de Gata mountain range, volcanic rock landscapes, islands, coastline and coral reefs and has the only warm desert climate in Europe. The park was listed as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 1997 and a Specially Protected Area of Mediterranean Importance in 2001. Picture by Manuel Cohen
