Sax
The first thing you’ll see, as you approach Sax, is Sax Castle perched on a rocky hilltop, originally built by the Moors and rebuilt by the Christians in 1239. Sax has 8664 inhabitants and is situated in the Alto Vinalopo at 471m above sea level. It has a railway station on the Madrid to Alicante line and is also well connected by road to the surrounding areas. Alicante Airport and the Costa Blanca beaches are around half an hours drive away. The small village of Salinas, with it’s beautiful church, is about 10km from Sax. Up until the 2nd half of the 20th century the area has relied on agriculture: vines, olives and cereal crops. A small 'huerta' irrigated by the Vinalopo River grows fruit trees and vegetables close to Sax. In the 19th century, and in particularly at the start of the 20th century, Sax began to branch out towards other activities such as flour mills, distilleries and making blinds and cardboard. Today most of Sax's working population are involved in the industrial sector (footwear, blinds, leather works and furniture). Agriculture, however, still remains an important activity, especially vines for wine.
Making the right investment is key and if you pick the right investment,
you could be in for a handsome return.
