Welcome to La Coruña, the land of Hercules. This is a Galician city where industrial and business activity combines perfectly with a tourist demand for mild temperatures, welcoming people, a gastronomy with an incredible flavor and a unique historic center.
With some 244,000 inhabitants, La Coruña is, to this day, the capital of its province. It has an average annual temperature of 14.8 °C with a humidity rate of 70% and is located in the fabulous Rías Altas.
Mythology and legends are still alive in this town that is proud to be the scene of one of the greatest exploits of the most famous son of Zeus. Hercules came to these lands to kill Geryon.
The battle, which lasted three days, ended with the victory of the demigod and the construction of the Tower of Hercules in the place where he decapitated his enemy and left his head. Crunna was the first person who, once the land was liberated, was able to inhabit it. This is the precious legend surrounding the foundation of this city. Still, this monument remains the icon of the town and its most precious building.
But La Coruña is not stuck in the past. It is worth walking around La Coruña to enjoy its parks, squares and streets. And if after the walk you feel hungry, its meats, fish and seafood are a true delight worthy of gods.
