Lleida is a city and metropolitan district found within the autonomous province of Catalonia. This Spanish destination is known for its amenable climate, its wealth of natural beauty and a rich history that can be traced back to Roman times.

The city is equipped with a modern public transportation system, including tramways, trains and buses. These also serve outlying areas. Major roads to and from Lleida include the A2, the N240 and the A22.
