Sueca is a city in eastern Spain in the Valencian Community. It is situated near the left bank of the river Xúquer. The town of Sueca is separated from the Mediterranean Sea (11 km east) by the Serra de Cullera, though the municipality possesses 7 km of Mediterranean coastline. Some of the architecture shows Moorish roots as in the flat roofs, view-turrets (miradors) and horseshoe arches, and the area has an irrigation system dating from Moorish times. Rice processing is the principal industry though oranges are also exported.
