What to see in Xaló
Jalón sits in the center of the Vall de Pop, a wine region framed by vineyards and almond trees. The cooperative Bodegas Xaló has produced wines, mistelas and vermut for more than 60 years, and invites visitors to taste them with local embutidos, quesos and almendras. Every Saturday a mercadillo opens in the Comunidad Valenciana, one of the busiest in the territorio.
