Chera is a municipality in the Comunitat Valenciana, in the province of Valencia, in the Requena-Utiel region. It is located 17 km from Requena, in the interior of the province of Valencia, and less than an hour from Valencia capital. Immersed in an enveloping tranquility and stillness, the town is located inside a huge tectonic trench formed sixty-five million years ago and surrounded by steep peaks up to 1,176 m high. Its economy is fundamentally based on rural tourism and mountain agriculture, where the cultivation of almond and olive trees stands out. It is the seat of the Chera-Sot de Chera Natural Park, also the first geological park in the Valencian Community and one of the three existing in Spain.
