Ribera Alta, Agricultural region in Valencia, Spain
The Ribera Alta division extends across 951 square kilometers, containing 35 municipalities with Alzira serving as the administrative capital of this Valencia province territory.
The region transformed its agricultural landscape in the 18th century when priest Vicente Monzó established the first commercial orange plantations in Carcaixent.
The municipalities of Ribera Alta maintain traditional festivals throughout summer, including the Mare de Déu de la Salut Festival in Algemesí and local Falles celebrations.
The division benefits from the Xúquer River system, which provides essential irrigation to agricultural lands supporting the production of oranges and other crops.
Local gastronomy features specific rice preparations and fish dishes, with regional specialties including all ipebre stews and espardenyà accompanied by Moscatel wines.
