The municipal area of 2 km2 is located in the Horta of Valencia. The natural disaster are rare because the land is almost flat, the urban area is located at an altitude of 35 m. The only exception is the Carraixet ravine that crosses the municipal area from north to south at a short distance from the urban area. Although it is normally dry, the large basin causes frequent overflows during the periods of cold drop in autumn. The municipal area is crossed by the Acequia Real de Moncada.
Like most towns in the Alfara del Patriarca region, it was a Muslim farmhouse. It was conquered by Jaime I in 1249 who later gave it to Ximén Pérez from the Aragonese town of Tarazona. Later it was transferred to Guillén Jáfer and Bonifacio Ferrer who made it a manor.
