Hello everyone,
Does Colombia celebrate Semana Santa like in Mexico? I know the Feria de las Flores is a important festival in Medellin which has a Calbagata and is aweome! But does Colombia have any large Ferias for the Semana Santa/Sabado de Gloria?
Here is video of two years (07&08)of the festival in Jerez, Zacatecas Mexico. This Feria is de Sabado de Gloria and it is nothing but party dancing and having fun. The whole country shuts down for this Catholic week, with dancing, boozing, cockfights etc.....ironic I know!

Gator says on Jan 24, 2009, 13:43: Not really like Mexico,but a lot of big-time religious events. This is, by far, the religious festival of the year Two of the largest are in Popayán and Mompox. Lots of vacations are taken so Cartagena and Santa Marta will be maxed out. "Bene, cum Latine nescias, nolo manus meas in te maculare" . 0 funny, 0 helpful. |
