NERJA, Spain - April 2, 2023 - PRLog -- Holy Week has officially started in Spain. This period is celebrated the most in the south, specifically Seville and Malaga. In this release, this event will be elaborated along with others.

Nerja is renowned for its lively and dynamic festivals held throughout the year. Whether it's the Holy Week processions or the New Year's Eve celebrations, both locals and tourists alike enthusiastically participate in the festivities.

The Semana Santa processions are also a major highlight of Nerja's festivals, with locals carrying statues of Jesus and Maria through the town's narrow streets accompanied by the solemn music of lit candles. Visitors are sure to be entranced by the beauty and joy of this occasion.

Holy Week is an important event in Spain's cultural calendar and draws visitors from all over the world who come to witness this deeply emotional and visually stunning display of faith and devotion.

The peak of this festival for many is the landing of the legionnaires in Malaga's port. The reason why it is so renowned is the fact they carry one of the thrones while singing their hymn. This is an evocative moment due to the fact the audience joins them in the song.

However, there are several events that take place in Nerja and are highly recommended.

One of them is the Three Kings festival, which takes place on January 6th. This festival depicts the arrival of the wise men to the birthplace of Jesus and is a visual spectacle featuring intricately designed, locally-made costumes that are sure to captivate and inspire people of all ages.

Nerja also hosts its own unique festivals, such as San Isidro and La Virgen del Carmen. San Isidro, in particular, holds a special place in the hearts of the locals, who celebrate the patron saint of farmers with a procession featuring beautifully decorated carts, horses, oxen, and tractors.
