Turia, derived from Latin origins, was a significant river that flowed through what is now Spain during ancient times. The river played a crucial role in the development of the Roman province of Hispania Tarraconensis, giving its name to various cities and regions along its course. Today, the Turia River continues to be an integral part of Valencia's urban landscape, providing recreational spaces and a unique ecological corridor within the city.
In 1977 and 1979 combined, there were eleven babies named Turia.
