Municipality in Valencian Community, Spain
Elche (, Spanish: [ˈeltʃe]) or Elx (UK: , US: , Valencian: [ˈɛʎtʃ]) is a town located in the comarca of Baix Vinalopó, Spain. According to the 2014 census, Elx has a population of 228,647 inhabitants (called il·licitans in Valencian and ilicitanos in Spanish), ranking as the third most populated city in the Valencian Community (after València and Alacant) and the 20th largest Spanish city. Part of the municipality is coastal but the main city is some 11 km (6.8 mi) from the Mediterranean Sea. A small creek called Vinalopó flows through the city splitting it in two parts. Elx is so close to the city of Alacant, that both cities form a de facto conurbation of some 800,000 inhabitants that can very well double during the summer peak-season. Elx is the home of football club Elche CF that plays in Segunda División. .... Learn more at Wikipedia
