The Region of Murcia is one of the autonomous communities of Spain. It is located on the southeastern part of the country, bordered by the Valencian Community to the northeast, Castile-La Mancha to the northwest and Andalusia to the southwest. It has a coastline facing the Mediterranean Sea to the southeast.

The Region of Murcia covers 11,313 sq km (4,368 sq mi) and has a population of 1.4 million people. It is an agricultural region producing fruits, vegetables and flowers as well as wines and olive oil. The terrain is relatively arid, which make the demand for water supply a pressing subject, particularly now that the region has also become a popular tourist destination.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.

To get to know me better, do follow me on Facebook!
