It lies very near to the municipalities of Llombai and Catadau, with which it almost forms a single urban centre. The abandoned castle of Aledua lies near the river. It is an eminently agricultural municipality. The terrain is irregular, lacking any notable peaks, and is drained by various ravines. It is surrounded by low mountains to the south. The vegetation is sparse, mainly scrubland and esparto. \u201cLa Fuente de la Mola\u201d spring is located in \u201cLa Falaguera\u201d. The drylands are dedicated to carobs, almonds, olives and vines. A significant area is dedicated to the production of \u201cmoscatel\u201d grapes, for direct consumption and for the production of \u201cmistela\u201d sweet wine. The irrigation lands are dedicated to the cultivation of wheat, corn, beans, chickpeas, potatoes, melons and oranges. Livestock is an important economic factor of the municipality; mention can be made of the cattle bred for milk production, as well as sheep and pigs.","galeria-poblacion":[29088,29036,29041,29046],"descripcion_2":"
