  The city of Valencia is geographically located in the East Coast of the Iberian Peninsula, just in the centre of the mediterranean coast, on both sides of the river Turia and its mouth. It's 15 metres above the sea level, taking as a reference point the "Miguelete" (the highest and most representative city belfry).

 It has a latitude of 39o28'36'' North and a longitude of 0o22'28'' West. Its natural borders are the provinces of Castellón and Teruel on the North; on the South, the province of Alicante; on

the West, the provinces of Albacete and Cuenca and on the East, the Mediterranean Sea.

Its privileged geographical location, with a strategic way out to the sea, and the fact that here is one of the most important sea ports of the peninsula, favours the communication with the most important spanish and european cities. Valencia is only 350 km  from Madrid and Barcelona.

 Apart from being the provice's capital, it is also considered as the third capital city of Spain, with a population of 764.010, and an area of 13.465 Has.

 A privileged geographical situation south-east of Europe which already attracts millions of visitors every years.
