Spain - Rural & Charming Bed & Breakfasts and Hotels
|
|
| Aragón is
the heart of what was in the Middle Ages the Crown of Aragon, which also
included regions like Valencia, Murcia, Catalonia, the Balearic Islands,
Venice, the South of Italy, Sicily and some Greek colonies. In the
Fifteenth century its King Ferdinand married Isabel of Castile and formed
the Kingdom of Spain.
Although it used to have
its own language, Aragonese, and laws, over the centuries most of them
were lost and it became more like Castile.
Located in northeastern Spain,
the region comprises three provinces from north to south: Huesca, Zaragoza,
and Teruel. |
|
|
Aragon's northern province
of Huesca borders France and is positioned in the middle of the Pyrenees.
Within Spain, the region is flanked by Catalonia on the east, Valencia
and Castile-La Mancha to the south, and Castile and Leon, La Rioja, and
Navarre to the west.
Covering an area of 47,719
km2 (18,424 sq mi), the region's
terrain ranges diversely from permanent glaciers to verdant valleys, rich
pasture lands and orchards, through to the arid steppe plains of the central
lowlands. Aragon is home to many rivers. |
|
|
| Most notably, the river
Ebro - Spain's largest river in volume, which runs west-east across the
entire region through the province of Zaragoza. It is also home to the
Aneto, the highest mountain in the Pyrenees.
