Ontinyent, Municipality in Vall d'Albaida, Spain

Ontinyent stands at 382 meters above sea level on the right bank of the Clariano River, surrounded by mountains in Valencia province.

The settlement evolved from an 11th-century Muslim community, with the Church of Santa Maria constructed upon the foundation of a former mosque.

The Moors and Christians festival in August features traditional parades, costumes, and reenactments that commemorate the city's medieval reconquest.

The municipality maintains regular train and bus connections to Valencia and Alicante, with a Monday market offering fresh local products.

The natural pools of Pou Clar present a sequence of water formations carved into the rock, creating natural swimming areas along the Clariano River.
