Within a radius of 400 km it has access to a population of 18 million inhabitants. Consequently, its location allows quick access to the most important cities and business centers in Europe. Its proximity to the area of el Corredor del Henares (Guadalajara, Alcalá de Henares, Madrid), the port of Valencia and Zaragoza Logistics Platform (the logistics service area in Zaragoza), all guarantee an excellent location for businesses seeking a competitive advantage as major national, and international markets are easy to reach, hence reducing logistical costs and maximizing profit. Excellent Travel links with future upgrades Calatayud offers fabulous communication links by road, and in particular the high speed train service (AVE), established in 2003, which connects the head of the region with the main economic centers of Spain (Madrid and Barcelona). With the introduction of the high speed AVE train service, Calatayud is less than half an hour from the Zaragoza international airport which, with its new terminal (inaugurated in 2008), links Aragón with the main European capitals. 3 Invest in Calatayud Zaragoza airport covers 40,000 square meters of land reserved for logistical activities, a terminal of perishable goods of some 2,000 m2, customs services, and has an unlimited operational capacity. Additional based in Zaragoza is the Terminal Marítima de Zaragoza (TMZ) (The Zaragoza Maritime Terminal), established in 2001. The main objective of the TMZ is to foster maritime foreign trade, offering the option of competitive, quality maritime transport to both regional operators, importers and exporters. The TMZ stimulates maritime transport in Zaragoza, Aragón, Valle del Ebro and adjacent areas. The combination of boat-train-truck offers a highly versatile service for entrepreneurs looking to optimize their costs and as a result, users dispose of more facilities to create intermodal transport solutions. All of this allows access to major national and international markets. Excellent Location 4 Invest in Calatayud Quality of Life An extensive offer of cultural and leisure activities blends with the natural beauty of the environment, a historical-cultural heritage, a rich, varied cuisine and an agreeable climate. This makes the municipal of Calatayud a prize to live in, not just for its closeness to Madrid or Zaragoza, but also for factors such as the low crime rate, and ease of moving about and fulfilling daily tasks (work, school, shopping, medical matters…). To conclude: traditional businesses and modern commercial centers, varied entertainment options, hospitals and medical centers, quick travel links and esteemed educational schools and centers, give rise to a high quality of life for the cities inhabitants. A Place of tourist interest With reference to spa therapy, the municipal of Calatayud is a definite for continuing developments in tourism. The opportunities on offer in the municipal, such as touristic resources and an increase in determined forms of tourism: health tourism, culture and rural tourism, reflect the vast opportunities available to investors in this sector. Out of all of the spa offers in Aragón, the municipal of Calatayud has seven spas making it a thermal area of reference. 5 Invest in Calatayud Another tourist attraction in Calatayud is the Augusta Golf Calatayud (18 holes), which is a very demanding tour, with several holes near to 500 meters, with small greens, closed streets and great precision blows. Its two lakes are typical because they are placed strategically in order to be part of some holes; this means that the training and the challenge are present in all the blows. The field is authorized by the Royal Spanish Federation of Golf in order to celebrate all kinds of local and national events of Golf. Furthermore, the Augusta Golf Calatayud possesses services to rent cars, bags, sticks, and custodies of sticks. 6 Invest in Calatayud Industrial and technological infrastructure The price of land in Calatayud is significantly inferior to other adjacent zones, which make it an interesting location for projects requiring large surface areas. The city of Calatayud has three industrial estates with a fourth, newly built. In addition to the industrial infrastructure, the city has equipped facilities for the location of companies from the technology sector. In these areas, undergo their business activities companies associated with the TIC sector. They are fully equipped reducing time and installation costs. Furthermore, it is planned to start a Center for Advanced Technology Companies, next to the AVE train station. This is geared towards facilitating the base of twenty companies in the Technology sector in a 1,700 square meter area, where there are offices, mixed office spaces, general business administration services, and common services for businesses (training classrooms, secretaries, and infrastructure). 7 Invest in Calatayud The types of businesses that suit this centre are the following: - Technology companies specializing in information and communication systems - R & D companies - Engineering, prototyping and assembly - Production technologies - Renewable energies and efficient energy generation - Etc. The location of this centre next to the AVE station facilitates: - Easy of travel for directors and project managers (one hour from Madrid) - Production centers, R & D and innovation departments with a saving of 30% in terms of installation costs compared to major cities. 8 Invest in Calatayud A Diverse Economic Structure The diversity of the economic structure of Calatayud, as well as the interrelations between the various sectors, makes the area and ideal location for both industrial and service companies. Traditional industrial activities such as food processing make the municipal of Calatayud a market leader on a regional, national and European level complemented by other sectors such as freight transport and tourism (extensive balneotherapy offers, and referenced places of interest, such as el Monasterio de Piedra). Available Workforce The major investment effort in training by various institutions facilitates the availability of qualified people, with both vocational and university qualifications (UNED), for new industrial and industrial support service investment projects. Furthermore, the public institutions the Aragonés Employment Institute) The Zaragoza Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and The Calatayud Entrepreneurs Association, support and facilitate the selection process of candidates for companies wishing to locate in the area. Moreover, there are annual advanced technical training programs for employees and management. The presence of powerful industrial and service companies Calatayud boasts numerous firms, who facilitate the daily activities of industries based in the area: Employment Agencies and companies specializing in engineering, industrial installation and assembly, accommodation and catering, logistics, transport, packaging, IT maintenance, specialist training, cleaning and installation maintenance services, etc. 9 Invest in Calatayud Pro-corporate policy framework Through various agencies and bodies of local and regional level exists strong support for the start up of new investment projects. Together these offer all the necessary conditions for setting up new business ventures. In addition to this, one must note the excellent workforce relations and the traditional “social calm”, which create a competitive pro-corporate policy framework. Business investiment support The various investment support programs from government agencies, private institutions, and local entities, require a personalized, individual case study to define the best options for investment plans. Promotional tools for investment are employment, competitiveness, and economic growth. There is financial support and incentives, (community grants, and regional/local government finance), available from different government agencies who possess funds dedicated to help finance the majority of investment needed for new and expanding businesses. All place special emphasis on permanent work contracts, R & D, and technical innovation (I+D+i, The Institute of Technological Development). Furthermore, the fact that Spain is a member of the European Union allows access to European finance funds for businesses, which makes it even more attractive to invest in Spain. Some of the types of grants available to help finance investment projects are: for personnel, training, the environment, and European grants for technical development. Support is given via market research and case studies focused on the feasibility of a business, rebates for the creation of Jobs, finance and grants, and support in the selection and training of personnel etc. The Calatayud County Council and the Zaragoza Chamber of Commerce and Industry provide constant business support advice and services.

  • Sobre Salvatierra De Esca, Aragón Y El Euskera Juan Karlos Lopez-Mugartza Iriarte
    Sobre Salvatierra de Esca, Aragón y el euskera Juan Karlos Lopez-Mugartza Iriarte En el turno de preguntas que siguió a la defensa de mi tesis doctoral se citó el artícu- lo de Jesús María Sasía “Más sobre toponimia euskérica...” aparecido en la revista Euskera (número 44, 1999-2) en el que se hacía referencia a la relación que existía en el siglo XIX entre el euskera y la población altoaragonesa de Salvatierra de Esca (provincia de Zaragoza). La referencia a ese artículo parecía obligada ya que en mi tesis se citaba expresamente esa población al tiempo que manifestaba mi extrañeza por el hecho de que la mayoría de los mapas lingüísticos que han dibujado el retroce- so del euskera han solido hacer coincidir el último confín del euskera con el límite oriental de Navarra desde épocas muy remotas. En efecto, una lectura errónea del mapa que Menéndez Pidal diseñara sobre la extensión de los dialectos ibéricos en el Pirineo ha traído consigo que muchos estudiosos hayan supuesto que el euskera de- sapareció de las tierras en las que se desarrolló el romance aragonés más o menos ha- cia el siglo VIII. Efectivamente, en mi tesis señalaba que me parecía muy poco probable que una población como Salvatierra de Esca, apareciera como no vascófona ya desde época tan temprana; sobre todo teniendo en cuenta su situación geográfica a tan sólo cuatro kilómetros de Castillonuevo1, en el fondo del valle que domina esa población, y en la entrada obligada del tráfico de almadías que viene de Roncal, valle con el que limi- ta, comparte pastos en Sasi y Virgen de la Peña, y tiene acuerdos de recorridos de mugas desde tiempos inmemoriales.

  • The Effects of Different Actors on Urban Agriculture: a Comparison of the Cities of Zaragoza and Valencia in Spain
    Sustainable Development and Planning VIII 53 The effects of different actors on urban agriculture: a comparison of the cities of Zaragoza and Valencia in Spain K. Sakura Department of Engineering, Architectural Course, Shinshu University, Japan Abstract Urban agriculture is closely watched because of a currently high interest in organic produce, desires for lush green cities, increased leisure activities, and so on. This study clarifies the locations of urban agricultural lands, why these locations were selected, and the functions of urban agricultural areas in two cities in Spain. The study focuses on the efforts of the Benimaclet Neighborhood Association in Valencia, Spain, and those of the Ebro Ambient Center in Zaragoza, Spain, to address these questions. Valencia’s Benimaclet Neighborhood Association is an example of citizen actors, and Zaragoza’s Ebro Ambient Center is an example of municipal government actors. This study finds that the locations and functions of urban agriculture differ by type of actor. The study supports research on the implementation of “the suitable place for urban agriculture” when designing sustainable cities of the future. Keywords: urban agriculture, actor, Valencia, Benimaclet Neighborhood Association, Zaragoza, Ebro Ambient Center. 1 Introduction 1.1 Background and purpose Urban agriculture has been attracting attention from the perspectives of organic farming, clean and safe agricultural produce, a desire for vibrant green cities, and so on. Scholars in the field of urban planning expect urban agriculture to offer alternative uses for vacant lots. The first purpose of this study is to develop that expectation one step further by clarifying where urban agricultural lands are WIT Transactions on Ecology and The Environment, Vol 210, © 2016 WIT Press www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3541 (on-line) doi:10.2495/SDP160051 54 Sustainable Development and Planning VIII located, why those locations are selected, and the part that urban agricultural areas play in modern cities.

Al respecto, cabe decir que prácticamente todos estos tramos se halla en buenas condiciones. Finalmente, como ya hacemos en otros recorridos similares, queremos decir que hace falta tener un cuidado muy especial en el respeto a la naturaleza, a lo largo de todo el recorrido del itinerario, y también fuera de él. BREVE INTRODUCCIÓN GEOLÓGICA El recorrido de este itinerario, se desarrollará por una de las tres unidades geológicas que constituyen el suelo y el subsuelo de Aragón y el de Navarra / Nafarroa. Concretamente por el Sistema Pirenaico, Cordillera Pirenaica o simplemente Pirineos; discurriendo íntegramente por el denominado Pirineo Meridional (el también denominado Pirineo Ibérico) Así, a lo largo de todo de todo el recorrido del itinerario, se irán encontrando afloramientos de los materiales del Cenozoico (fundamentalmente del Eoceno y del Oligoceno), que son los que en este lugar forman parte del Pirineo.

  • 10. Monasterio De Piedra. Un Ejemplo De Arquitectura Militar Cisterciense
    Lám. 64. Torre puerta del Monasterio de Piedra, construida en el siglo XII, con un balcón litúrgico añadido a inicios del siglo XV para la ostensión de las reliquias, la aclamación de la Santa Duda de Cimballa y usado como conjuratorio de tormentas y pestes. 192 MONASTERIO DE PIEDRA. UN EJEMPLO DE ARQUITECTURA MILITAR CISTERCIENSE D. Roberto Hernández Muñoz Universidad Complutense de Madrid [email protected] Resumen: Para poder seguir la Regla de San Benito de Nursia y su máxima ora et labora, los cistercienses fundaron sus monasterios en parajes naturales aislados, muy lejos de toda civilización. Sin embargo, este aislamiento conlle- vó una cierta inseguridad, puesto que, al no tener quienes les ayudasen a su alrededor, los bandidos y malhechores podían asaltarles con mayor facilidad. Esta inseguridad llevó al Císter a desarrollar, paralela a la arquitectura religiosa y de vida monacal, una arquitectura militar propia, siendo la muralla del Mo- nasterio de Piedra un buen ejemplo de este tipo de construcciones. Por eso, la finalidad que persigue este artículo es tratar de explicar el sistema defensivo de este monasterio; cuál es su historia, su función y cuáles son sus partes más relevantes. Palabras clave: Císter, Monasterio de Piedra, sistema defensivo. PIEDRA MONASTERY: AN EXAMPLE OF CISTERCIAN MILITARY ARCHITECTURE Abstract: To follow the rule of St. Benedict of Nursia and his maxim «ora et labora», the cistercians founded their monasteries in isolated natural areas, far away from civilization. However, this isolation led to a certain insecurity, since, having no civilization to help them around, bandits and criminals could assault them more easily.

The large variety of ecosystems to be found in the province of Zaragoza allow us to easily see birds as different as great bustards, cranes, Egyptian vultures, ferruginous ducks, great bitterns, Dupont's lark, little bustards and red kites among many others. The province of Zaragoza is of great ornithological interest because of both the quantity and the variety of species present for both specialists and for nature lovers who are just beginning to bird-watch. We have suggested some easy routes where the most emblematic birds in each zone - that might pique your interest or those that are endangered - may be found. Zaragoza invites you to meet her ornithological treasures.

  • Borja Y Los Borja: La Forja De Un Mito Para Enaltecer Una Ciudad*
    REVISTA BORJA. REVISTA DE L’IIEB, 5: ACTES DEL CONGRÉS ELS BORJA EN L’ART Borja y los Borja: la forja de un mito para enaltecer una ciudad* ALBERTO AGUILERA HERNÁNDEZ1 Centro de Estudios Borjanos INTRODUCCIÓN La vasta literatura científica generada en torno a la familia de los Borja es prácti- camente unánime en situar sus humildes orígenes en la ciudad aragonesa de Borja, desde donde partieron en 1238 a la conquista de Valencia. El Llibre del Repartiment, en efecto, señala la existencia de cuatro personas con este apellido, aunque ninguna era caballero y una aparece entre las gentes que vinieron de Jaca (Huesca),2 circunstancia que, en opinión de Manuel Gracia Rivas y José Enrique Pasamar Lázaro,3 se justifica porque, en esos momentos, el apellido se encontraba consolidado, y aunque no cuestio- nan la aparente relación con la entonces villa de Borja, admiten que pudo no ser inme- diata. De hecho, podemos decir que a lo largo de los siglos los vínculos reales entre la localidad y el linaje al que dio nombre fueron inexistentes, pero a comienzos del siglo XVII confluyeron una serie de factores que, en su conjunto, hicieron posible la manipu- lación del pasado histórico de la ciudad, forzando los datos todo lo necesario con tal de construir una nueva identidad ciudadana que la convirtiera en patria de una prestigiosa estirpe que, no debe olvidarse, también se valía del que fuera su señor, Pedro de Atarés, para conectarse con la Casa Real aragonesa.4 En el estado actual de conocimiento, parece que el ideólogo principal de ello fue el notario
