THE MIDDLE AND CENTER OF THE ISLAND
SANTA GERTRUDIS
Santa Gertrudis is a Village that could create a very special atmosphere between the new things and the real Ibiza. It´s like a own style to do things. Althought Sant Rafel unhabitants says that they are the real center of the island, it is sure that is Santa Gertrudis where we can say that is the center of the island.
The "cool" atmosphere and the quiteness of the streets with a lot of restaurants and bars offering the famous "bocatas" (sandwiches and rolls) are making of this place the real meeting point for the local people and as well for tourists.
Some of the stores in this place has no changed for a long time.
Some of the most famous bars of the village are a real picture gallery and thus they are full of big pictures on their walls that we can enjoy meanwhile eating our rolls.
Some stores are decorated with an Asian atmosphere, casual style.
Art galerys are around in big number, as well as the good restaurants and also the room auctions are very popular in this village.
Althought exists modern houses, there are a big number of old houses with their own details, as for instance the windows.
Gatzara's well is to few distance of Santa Gertrudis, it is said that this one is the real point that marks the real center of the island.
