Jaen is a lovely province in Andalucia. It is also one of the least populated - the whole of Jaen, 13,498 Km², has just 628.000 inhabitants.
The fact that for years it was one of the least visited province in Spain owes much to the terrible roads and communications leading to this province. But since the new motorways have been opened, and local roads improved, more and more travellers - from Spain and further afield - are starting to discover the delights of this beautiful and singular province. One of Spain's most important rivers, the Guadalquivir, crosses Jaen, adding to its attractive landscape and fertile lands.
The Cazorla and Segura mountain ranges are visited by tourists all year round, attracted by the area's natural beauty and wealth of flora and fauna which thrive in its more remote areas. The province has four large natural reserve parks.
The northern part of Jaen province has the largest plantations of olive groves in the whole of Spain, and indeed the production of olive oil is central to the local economy. The olives are picked by hand, and the olive oil produced here (D.O. Sierra de Segura and D.O. Sierra Mágina) has a distinctive aroma and, according to experts, rank among the best olive oils in the world.
The province of Jaen was occupied by Romans during Roman occupation of Spain, and then by Visigoths until the Arab invasion at the beginning of the 8th century. Once finally reconquered by the Christians, the influence of Jaen grew, and in the 16th century the cities of Baeza and Ubeda were among the most important cities of southern Spain. Both cities still retain contain remnants of their former glory today, in their respective old quarters.
