About España
España is organised into seventeen autonomous communities, each with its own cultural and linguistic character. This directory lists 737 populated places, organised so visitors can browse from country to region to city and locate specific communities or postal-code areas of interest.
The country covers Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts, the central plateau, and island territories, and the pages on this site reflect that hierarchical structure. Each region page links to the cities it contains; each city page provides basic facts (coordinates, population where known, postal codes) along with prose context drawn from the underlying open datasets.
The directory uses a five-digit postal-code system that broadly aligns with provincial boundaries. Postal codes shown for each place are joined from the GeoNames postal dataset against the city by name and administrative region; coverage varies by country and by data-source quirk. Browse by region below, or jump directly to a featured city.
