Algemesí is a municipality in the
County of La Ribera Alta in the Valencian Community, Spain.
The town of Algemesí is one of the major centers for the production
of citruses in Spain, and several cooperatives are based there. This
is due to the soft climate and good irrigation coming from the
Xuquer river, which passes through the city.
The traditional Valencian dance called "muixeranga" is originally
from here.
