Tucked away in the hinterland of three major cities (Barcelona, Valencia and Zaragoza), this region served as a major trading post for centuries. The Ebro River and Delta are "Mother Nature's" two key ingredients in making this area a prize gem in fishing and agriculture. Tourism has recently surfaced in the region, but the local people have made it a priority to keep the natural and traditional values alive forever. A number of lagoons invite birdwatchers all year round. Winner of the Destination of Excellence award in the category "Tourism and protected areas" in 2009 (EDEN).
