Sacred Semana Santa, Spain
Semana Santa or Holy Week, the period between Palm Sunday and Easter, brings out all the colour, sight, and sound that make Spain such an irresistible destination. Jerez, a small town in Andalucia most of you have probably never heard of (but you will, as our new Spain trip planner is located here) celebrates the week with a display and a fervour far beyond what you’d expect of a town of 200,000 inhabitants. In many ways it’s the culmination of the year, and even those not of the Catholic faith will be in awe of the pomp and majesty of the celebrations. We took our camera out for an evening of processions to see if we could capture the essence of this holiest of holy weeks.
Sebastian is celebrating Semana Santa and the new Spain Morocco office with considerable enthusiasm. He would love to share his exuberance with you, about Spain, Semana week, or just about life in general.
