Semana Santa in Córdoba


Last week was Holy Week, known here in Spain as Semana Santa.  It is a culturally religious time here, as church fraternities take the large statues of Christ and the Virgin out of the churches and carry them through the streets in grand processions.  Instead of attempting to explain the sights, sounds and smells of Semana Santa, we've put together a video of one of the processions to give you a better feel for what it's like.  You can also see some still photos by clicking HERE.
