CORUÑA FEATURED SELF-CATERING APARTMENTS / APARTHOTELS, GALICIA
SPAIN |
|
| A Coruña (Spanish:
La Coruña; Galician: A Coruña; also Corunna in English) is
the second largest city in Galicia in northwestern Spain, second only in
size to the port of Vigo in the Pontevedra Province. |
 |
| The city is also the
capital of A Coruña Province and it was the capital of Galicia from
the year 1563 to 1982 when it moved to Santiago de Compostela. The name
A Coruña is said to be derived from the ancient columna, or Tower
of Hercules, which still exists, having been converted into a light-house
in 1791. A more probable etymology relates the word Cluny (Crunia --> Coruña),
the religious order from the south of France. During its height (c. 950–c.1130)
the Cluniac movement was one of the largest religious forces in Europe.
There is another one Coruña in Burgos Province. A Coruña
is a busy port located on a promontory in the entrance of an estuary in
a large gulf (the Portus Magnus Artabrorum of the classical geographers)
on the Atlantic Ocean. It provides a distribution point for agricultural
goods from the region. Although much of the heavy industry is based on
the shipyards and metalworks of the neighbouring city of Ferrol, there
is an oil refinery in A Coruña itself. |

Sample
some of the Finest Roman Architecture found anywhere in Lugo
Northern Spain and Galicia particularly
has long been an undiscovered jewel in the whole of the Spanish tourism
industry and within that undiscovered jewel in particular we are going
to take a look at Lugo. |
|
| Overall of all of the
autonomous regions of Spain possibly Galicia is the most remote and this
makes Lugo even more of an undiscovered treasure. Traditionally,
Galicia was seen as a poor agricultural region, whose economy did not lend

constant contact with the past that gives the region its appeal and charm...
