PALM GROVE<\/h6>\n<\/div>
<\/div>

A unique ecosystem<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>

The Orihuela Palm Grove is a grouping of specimens of date palm cultivated and arranged regularly on the margins of terraces, roads, and irrigation channels. The Palm Grove has a crescent shape, occupying an approximate area of 637,400 m2.<\/strong> The shape of the palm grove is highly influenced by the place where it has arisen, sheltered by the Sierra de Orihuela to the north, the Monte de San Miguel to the south and the Oriolet to the west. Both because of its shape, and because of the fact of having arisen in the shelter of the mountain, bordering the Orihuela orchard, they have made it a unique system of agriculture, combining its historical character and the engineering of the water that plows through them, created by Muslims.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
