Valencia, situated halfway down the Eastern coast of Spain, is the third most important city in Spain. Its population is 800,000 inhabitants, or 1,500,000 counting on the suburbs.
The average annual temperature is 16.7º C, which includes mild winters and warm summers to be enjoyed on the region's sunny white-sanded beaches, which stretch out from the City of Valencia itself along the Valencian coastline. Valencia boasts one of the largest remaining historical centres in Europe, and the city's noble past can be felt here, in what was one of the main economic and cultural centres of the Mediterranean in the 14th and 15th centuries.
The city of Valencia is easily accessible from abroad, through its airport, motorway links, port and railway network.
