Overview:
Zaragoza,
Spain, is
currently the fifth biggest city in Spain and has 650,000
inhabitants. It is the seat of the Government of Aragon and is a
modern city, which since the sixties has grown considerably. Its
strategic location in the centre of northeast Spain makes it an
ideal place for conferences, since it lies in the centre of the
Madrid-Barcelona and Valencia-Bilbao axes, and is only 250 kilometers
from France.
Zaragoza
is the culminant point in the valley of Ebro, Spain's most
water-bearing river, in an impressive landscape with picturesque
villages and very old traditions and popular customs.
Zaragoza is one of the great monumental towns in Spain. It was
founded some 2000 years ago, and Old-Iberians, Romans, Goths and
Arabians equally left their heritage. Zaragoza as well includes
important buildings of Spanish baroque.
Today the town is economically very active, and organizes
several important international fairs.
