Easter is a special time. Spiritual for some, rest for other, But for everyone in Andalusia, It is time Guilds, Steps, Pilgrimages and Thrones, Nazarenes and penitents.
Believers or not, At some point in life I think it is worth it, If there is the possibility, experience what this religious tradition means and the way this Christian party is expressed in Andalusia.
Characteristics and very popular are those of Sevilla Y Málaga, But each large or small city shows at this time in addition to devotion for what Jesus Crucified and Mother Mary means, the work of a whole year of preparation that goes out to show off and honor by the intricate streets and avenues.
Small and older participate in this party either from within, as a member of the different brotherhoods, as from outside as a spectator or pilgrim.
The saetas are heard from the balconies, some prepared and rehearsed other spontaneous, But all sung from the deepest feeling.
Here are some images where the crowd is mixed with the steps and processions in the full Malaga streets.
