Aka the Apes Den where the macaques are fed. Incredible views from here of Western side of Gibraltar, Spain and Morocco in the distance. Amusing to watch the monkeys play chase and nearly fall off the railings, amazing balancing skills and grip. Taxi drivers stop here as part of the very popular rock tours based at Casements Square. The first time we visited we walked past without stopping as no 'Apes Den' signs, no apes and no taxis at the time. So the next time we took a guided taxi tour. I was very relieved to see that the fruit is left under shade for the monkeys.

Thrilling walk so high up and seeing the ground below. Awesome views across the sea and of the rock. Quite a few monkeys hanging around and playing. One of them interested in me filming him, holding onto my jacket and watching me watching him. Baby macaques huddling with their families and playing with each other.
7. Gibraltar: A City Under Siege Exhibition

We recently spent the day on the Rock of Gibraltar and tried to see as much as we could of the Amazing Place. There are so many things to see and do on "The Rock" that you really could spend a few days here to take it all in.. One of the places we visited on "The Rock" was Gibraltar: A City Under Siege Exhibition. It was a well done depiction of life on Gibraltar during its turbulent times. The mannequins were so life like and dressed in period costumes. The neat thing was the graffiti that is carved into the walls by British soldiers...Some dating back to 1726.... The City Under Siege Exhibition is definitely worth a short visit....
8. The Gibraltar Parliament

Both the PM's office and the parliament building (on John Mackintosh Square) are well worth seeing. Do not forget that Gib is self governing, despite being a British overseas territory
