BENIALÍ
Between la Marina Alta and El Comtat counties we find one of the most interesting and beautiful tourist areas in the province of Alicante: La Vall de Gallinera (the gallinera Valley).
This valley , crossed by Gallinera river and the road between Pego and Cocentaina, is composed of 8 villages, from East to West: Benirrama, Benialí, Benitaia, Benissivà, La Carroja, Alpatró, Llombai y Benissili, all of them with the original moorish toponymy.
Benialí, with a population near to 700 inhabitants, is the valley capital and there lies the city hall.
The traditional fiesta is held in August with the parades of Moors and Christians (they recall the old fight between both people in the Middle Ages)
The visitor shouldn’t miss one of the best dishes in this town,the wild boar, in any restaurant in the village : El Jabalí, L’Aplec......
