Image of Anna, not of the place itself.

Lake of Anna (La Canal de Navarrés, Valencia), located one kilometre southwest of the village, at 195 metres of altitude, and one of the comarca's main natural attractions. It formed naturally and, until clean-up works in the early 20th century, was a marshy area, muddy and hard to cross. It measures about 180 metres from east to west and 300 from north to south, with an average depth of 5 metres, and is surrounded by willows and poplars that shade visitors in summer. Its waters come from natural springs and artesian wells that surface in a small depression cutting through the water table of the area, through springs locally called ullals. Together with the Gorgo de la Escalera and the Fuente Negra, it is one of the most touristic spots in the Valencian Community.
