The area of modern-day Aragón corresponds to the medieval Kingdom of Aragón which existed from 1035 to 1707. Its capital is the city of Zaragoza. The region is divided into three provinces namely Huesca, Zaragoza and Teruel. Aragón has a population of 1.3 million people, with half of that living in Zaragoza. A sparsely populated region, Aragón is mountainous, with deep valleys and canyons between snow-capped peaks.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
