És un bar típic en Alzira per a esmorzars i per a dinar bones paelles.

The Garrofer spring is a spring where water, coming from the Agulles aquifer, flows happily through two pipes and is channeled to an adjacent washhouse. Despite the warning that the water is not potable (as it is not chlorinated or subject to any health control), thousands of Alzire residents travel up to thirteen kilometers and sometimes form long queues to fill their water jugs.

I recommend enjoying the muixerangues in this square. The Minor Basilica of Sant Jaume is a cultural asset. It is located in the center of the town and occupies one of the sides of the Plaza Mayor. Its architecture is in the Renaissance style. It was built between 1550 and 1582 by Domingo Gamieta and had the collaboration of Juan d'Alacant and Juan Matalí. The Minor Basilica of Sant Jaume and its surroundings were proposed and cataloged as an asset of cultural interest, due to its great historical and architectural richness in 1980. It is where one of the most significant moments of the procession of the Virgin of Health is experienced, when the different dances that characterize this festival, declared intangible heritage of humanity, converge at its entrance. The muixerangues (human towers) that accompany the entrance of the Virgin Mary into the basilica are especially emotional, with their characteristic music of dolzaina and tabal.

The church is located in the center of the town, in the main square of Algemesí, and was built in the 16th century. At its feet is the Chapel of the Communion, a primitive church that communicates with the current church through three arches. Its Renaissance façade with the coat of arms of the town and the bell tower on top stand out. The church of San Jaime Apóstol is one of the key points of the Mare de Déu d'Algemesí festival, recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
