A Coruña (Castilian: La Coruña) has only in recent years been rivalled by Vigo as Galicia's biggest city. It remains the region's most outward-looking urban center, with a liberal-republican tradition at variance with the conservative remainder of Galicia. Its port was the gateway through which hundreds of thousands of Galician emigrants left for new lives in the Americas.

The train and bus stations are a couple of kilometres southwest of the city center. La Coruña gets interesting along a fairly narrow isthmus and the large headland to its east and north.

The old town (ciudad vieja) huddles in the southern tip of the headland, while the Torre de Hércules caps its northern extreme. Most hotels, restaurants and bars are in the newer, predominantly 19th-century part of town on the isthmus. Its northwestern side is lined with sandy beaches, while to the southeast lies the port.
