Jerez with children: Turismo Jerez - Página oficial

Jerez is an ideal city to visit if you are making plans for the whole family given its wide and varied choice of tourist attractions, all attractive and interesting to visit, to learn about and at the same time enjoy together with the youngest of the family.

A visit to the Palace of Time is to enjoy a museum collection of over 300 time pieces, authentic treasures in different styles and periods and where, on the hour, all strike the hour to provide a veritable concert of chimes along with holograms to surprise and delight the youngest of the family whilst transporting them to a world of illusions.

Visit the Alcázar fortress, the oldest building in the city, and be transported back to ancient times where it surprises us with its ramparts, towers and battlements, mosque, Arab baths, the spectacular Villavicencio Palace and Olive Press, both of a later period, gardens and open air spaces steeped in history and the singular Camera Obscura providing a 360 degree panoramic view of Jerez with real-time images in movement.

A special way to spend the day is to visit the Zoo and Botanical Gardens and discover the animal world, represented by over 200 different species, and spectacular botanical riches, ride on a mini-train ride and enjoy the snack bar and recreation area.
