Beniaján is a village located in the Region of Murcia (Spain), beside the mountains that close the Valley of Segura.
It has a population of around 11,000, and is not far from the region's capital, Murcia.
Beniaján is known for the abundant production of citrus fruits that its factories export around the world; this is the most important economic activity in this city.
[1] Since before the 18th century, the Virgen del Carmen has been the Patrona (patron saint) of Beniaján.
A statue is carried in procession annually in celebration of her feast day.
