Located near the Francolí river, the village is
surrounded by a vast plain. The term is full of irrigated farming, as it takes
advantage of the water from the Francolí river. The hazel is the dominating
cultivation. On the unirrigated lands we way find hazels and olive trees.
The cooperative farming, created in 1929, markets with
products and offers services to the farmers. The social house, the school and
the sport tracks assure the quality of life of the village.
The streets are wide and bright, with spacious houses
solidly built, adjusted to the needings and to the way of life of the farmers.
