Perhaps the least known of the Andalucían provincial capitals, Jaén is a quiet, undiscovered but interesting city with a magnificent cathedral and castle.The Cathedral, built between the 16th and 18th centuries, and the adjoining parish church or 'El Sagrario'. The city's Moorish castle, converted into a Parador, sits majestically on top of Mount Santa Catalina, and atop a nearby hill stands a monumental cross-engraved with a moving poem by Almendros Aguilar. It is worth climbing to the top just to see the spectacular view of the city and the rolling olive groves of Jaen!
Famous for the expanses of olive trees that cover Jaén’s landscape, dotted over rolling hills of orange soil, Jaén is the largest olive growing district in Spain. A landlocked province in the north of Andalucía, Jaén stretches from the vast and wild Sierra Morena in the north down to the border with Granada in the south. Its population is 117,540 (2006), about 1/6 of the population of the province. In the last years Jaén has had a great increase of cultural tourism.
Jaen has the largest area of natural space that is protected by the Spanish government, measuring up to 3500 hectares. This area has been converted into four natural parks, reserves, nature spots and parks within urban zones – all of which are home to many endangered species.

La Garza Golf
Jaen's only golf course la Garza, is sited within a municipal park in Linares and is property of the Andalucian regional government. The 9-hole layout has just been rebuilt by the known course architect Pepe Gancedo (Torrequebrada, Monte Mayor etc). The fairways are defined by cork oaks, pines, cypresses and other indigenous trees and bushes. There are trees in the centre of some greens as well as eight of the course's nine fairways. Water comes into play on holes 1, 7, 8 and 9. The original design was traced out forty years ago and the course was finally built in 1994 when five holes were opened for play.
