Durango, Biscay

Durango is a city and municipality of the historical territory and province of Biscay, located in the Basque Country, Spain. It is the capital city of Durangaldea, one of the ''comarcas'' of Biscay. Because of its economical activities and population, Durango is considered one of the most important cities in Biscay after the ones that compose the conurbation of Greater Bilbao.
Durango has 28,618 inhabitants (2012). The town is crossed by three rivers (as illustrated in the town symbol). The Ibaizabal river is the main river, and lies in the middle of its wide valley, with the scenic Urkiola mountain range and natural park to the south. The most important peak is the majestic Anboto ( in elevation). In addition, inside the town stand out two mountains: Pagasarri mountain (838 mts.)and Neberondo (453 mts.).
== Etymology ==

There are many differing opinions about the origin of the name Durango. Basque linguistic Alfonso Irigoyen has suggested its origin to be in the name ''Duranco'', probably used in the early Middle Ages.〔(History of Durango ) at Durango's City Hall website (Basque)〕 Other authors suggest the name to be a derivation of ''Urazango'' or an evolved form of ''Padurango''. In the confirmation of the town's fuero it is referred to as ''Tavira de Durango''; Tavira was probably the primitive name of the settlement and Durango the name of the region surrounding it. Until the 16th century, the town was known as Uribarri de Durango, ''Uribarri'' being Basque for "New town".
