Talavera de la reina

Population: 83793 people.

Area: 186 km².

Talavera de la Reina is a city and municipality in the western part of the province of Toledo, which in turn is part of the autonomous community of Castile-La Mancha, Spain. It is the second-largest nucleus of population in Castile-La Mancha and the largest in the province of Toledo: its population of 83,793 makes it larger than the city of Toledo, although the latter remains the provincial capital. The city is settled along the river Tagus (Tajo in Spanish) at a broad bank. There are two islands in the center of the city called Isla Grande (Big Island) and Chamelo Island. The second one is a magnificent survival of Mediterranean forest. The city is surrounded by two ranges of mountains, in the north the Sierra de Segurilla, and in the south the Black Hill. The city is divided in two by the river Tagus. The northern part is the larger and more populated; both parts are connected by three bridges, one of them built by the Romans. The weather is continental; winter is wet and cold with dense fog in the mornings, and summer is quite warm. The area is very fertile with Mediterranean forests, elms, olive trees and corks. Talavera's inhabitants are known in English as Talaverians and as Talaveranos in Spanish.
