Las Fallas, Valencia |
| |
The life and soul of the city comes together during the time of ‘Las Fallas’. This celebration is to mark the transition from winter into spring. The burning of the sculptures cleanses winter worries, and is thought to have come from Pagan rituals from ancient Mediterranean cultures. The models are wooden frames which support the immense Papier-Mache masterpieces, which take all year to make, for this occasion, where they will be burnt to the ground.
15th and 19th of March.
