La Coruna is a city in the northern part of Spain and is found in the Galicia region. Area wise it ranks second in that part. This city is also the administrative head of the ‘La Coruna’ province. This name was derived because a towering structure exists here and means the ‘Tower of Hercules.' It also has a leading port here based on the name of the city itself.
