Borriana

Few towns in the Valencian Community have a history as closely tied to citrus cultivation and the orange trade as Borriana. Set near Spain’s Mediterranean coast in Castellón province, the town expanded markedly during the 19th century as oranges were exported through its port at El Grau. Citrus groves still shape the low-lying plain around the urban centre, while the coast remains central to local life through its beach district and harbour. In the old town, the Basilica of El Salvador is a prominent Gothic landmark, and the annual Falles bring Valencian traditions of sculptural monuments, fire and neighbourhood celebrations to the streets.
