Informations to Orgiva,
Las Alpujarras, Andalucia. This small market town is at the centre of the Granada
section of the Alpujarras. Orgiva (pronounced: OR-khi-va) is situated at 450 metres
above sea level and is the cultural and architectural meeting- point between the
traditions of the rest of the province of Granada and the Moorish influences of
the Alpujarras. The town lives from the fertility of the well-watered valley that
surrounds it. The mild, almost subtropical, climate permits the cultivation of
oranges, lemons and mandarins, harvested at any time from January to May.
Orgiva lies between two mighty mountain
ranges: the snow-covered Sierra Nevada to the north and the Sierra Lujar to the
south, both with peaks of over 2000 metres.
