Festivities in Loja

In Loja there are a lot of popular festivities, which I am going to describe as follows:

In February, people in my town celebrate a festivity known as "La Candelaria". In it, a few days before it takes place, people look for sticks and put one on top of the others and on 2nd February they burn them and after that they have a barbecue, on this day it is typical to eat a bread thread.

El Caminito del Rey

“The King's little pathway” was initially built as an access route. It enabled workers at the hydroelectric power plants of El Chorro Gorge and Gaitanes Gorge to have an easier way to transport materials, maintain and inspect the workings of the two power plants. The construction of the “walkway” began in 1901 and was finished in 1905. In 1921 King Alfonso XIII visited and walked along the path for the inauguration of the Conde del Guadalhorce dam and since that time it became known as the “King's path".

An offshore procession

In the old days, people in Estepona did not swim in the sea until the water had been blessed. This article explains the reason.

Santa Fe

A long time ago there was a little military camp consisting of four arches and some dozens of tents to shelter the Catholic Kings and those who were on their side to struggle against the last Muslim stronghold in the Iberian Peninsula. Fortunately, it has endured over time; its name is Santa Fe and is located in Granada, one of the eight provinces of Andalusia, in the south of Spain.

Loja's Holy Week

It's, undoubtedly, the most important manifestation of popular culture of Loja, and it's based on the devout tradition of a large part of the society of this city, as their devotion for the Jesus' Passion  of Nazareth is taken out to the street in a aesthetic, artistic and cultural performance. This celebration was declared of National Tourist Interest of Andalusia.
