The province of Almería lives from the "mar de plástico" around the city of El Ejido, the marble on the town of Macael, on the central part of the mountains south of the Almanzora River Valley (There's a duplicated-road freeway through some parts of that valley & some parts of the road are being duplicated to connect this freeway part to A-7 near Huércal-Overa (East of the valley)), the tourism on its coast, because it has a dry, warm climate & more than 300 sunny days a year, especially on Summer & the Desert of Tabernas, the only desert that can be called a desert on Europe & a place where some Western movies were recorded, mainly Italian Westerns, AKA "Spaghetti Westerns", many of them with Terence Hill & Bud Spencer between the cast
@@danielrubiocintas5686 ES: Sí, Macael es el Carrara español. Hay mármol por todas partes, hasta el pueblo le ha dado un mortero de mármol de Macael a chefs como Arguiñano o Enrique Sánchez, además de tener el mortero más grande del mundo expuesto en una rotonda del pueblo. EN: Yeah, Macael is like the Italian town of Carrara, but in Spain. There's marble on every place on town, even the town gave marble mortars to great Spanish cooking chefs like Karlos Arguiñano & Enrique Sánchez (2 famous Spanish TV Cooking Show presenters), apart from having the World's largest mortar on a rondabout of the town
This is one of my favourite drives! From the sea you can see the viaducts high above the city and they're very impressive. Also the landscape is incredibly beautiful. Traffic gets thick sometimes, they should plan on widening the road for the future though it could be prohibitively expensive.
The viaducts were built for six lanes, the piers have space to add a few beams on the inside. The tunnel also has a shoulder, i think it was designed for three lanes each way.
This one's a long way south of my preference for your routes up or down the Pyrenees or Alps so I didn't expect to be making a comment this time. The first guitar riff changed that plan because that's proper driving music !! If you dig out anything by A Flock Of Seagulls, you can show yourself stuck in roadworks for 10 minutes and it'll still be wonderful !!
As a curiosity: this highway follows the same route as the old "Via Augusta", built by the Roman emperor Augustus at the end of the 1st century BC. It goes from Cádiz to the French border, bordering the entire Spanish coast of the Mediterranean Sea.
Northern European tax payer money well spent :-) Didn't know the region was that dry and desert like. Very impressive scenery and views, great video and music!
William. Incredible offensive and racist coment. I pay a lot of taxes and most of the great things that we have here have being paid by us. I have to work to eat everyday , I do not wait, arms crossed until your money is transfered to my bank account. Did the nazis lose the war? I am beginning to have my doubts. We have an awesome and wonderful country thanks to us. No Marshall Plan for Spain...like you had.
you can find every landscape in spain ..green , arid , semi arid , tropical...

Beautiful place! Every year we visit the place since i was a child
Almeria port towards Beni Ansar Nador (Morocco) this place in the summer gets quite busy with all the Moroccan traffic.
Awesome scenery; would love to drive this one day. Thanks for the upload!
The land of my paternal grandmother. Love it

@@EuropeanRoads I hadn't noticed that about the viaducts!
Thanks for this beatiful video! :)
Anda por ahi paso todos los dias
Fantastic expressway with plenty of bridges and tunnels, nestled between the mountains and the sea. Love it!!
Love these videos. They've given me some fantastic ideas for road trips, and when stuck with a week of drudgery at work make wonderful escapism :)
Been here back in 2013 and 2014, reminds me of the careless summer holidays.

The music empowers the video. I like the soundtracks :)
I miss the days of travel before covid
