Zaragoza province and the city of Zaragoza reside in the Aragon region in Northeast Spain. From the foothills of the Pyrenees to the floodplains around the Ebro River, the province offers buyers of Spanish property a multitude of purchasing opportunities, as well as a wealth of rural locations in which to site that dream villa in Spain.
Across the province are numerous historical villages and towns. In the north, where the southern slopes of the Pyrenees climb up from the Aragonian plains, is a group of villages renowned for their Roman connections. It is here where the Romans grew cereal crops in abundance. In the west of the region is Tarazona - a town well known for its immodest display of Gothic and Renaissance architecture.
The city of Zaragoza itself is home to some 600,000 people. It stands on the southern bank of the Ebro River and is the region's centre for commerce, trade and leisure. It is a vibrant youthful city built around its historical monuments and vast eleven-domed 17th century basilica. In a recent survey, Zaragoza and the surrounding region were voted as one of the healthiest places in which to live in Europe!
Zaragoza property in the city is naturally more expensive than in the surrounding rural areas. Zaragoza property buyers will find apartments, penthouses, villas and a mix of other property types for sale. Spanish property for sale close to the city's historical centre is generally most in demand.
