València is the capital of the autonomous community of Valencia and the third-largest city in Spain after Madrid and Barcelona, surpassing 800,000 inhabitants in the municipality. The wider urban area also comprising the neighbouring municipalities has a population of around 1.6 million.
The Port of Valencia is the 5th-busiest container port in Europe and the busiest container port on the Mediterranean Sea.
