Moros y Cristianos

Once more, I took a couple of days off, attended Moros y Cristianos festivities in Alcoy… and also took a couple of pictures, which show some of the things that captured my attention at most.

Moors and Christians

Last week I took a couple of days off to go to the town I was born in, Alcoy, to live the best time of the year there: the “Moros y Cristianos” festivities. Two big armies, the christians and the muslims, showing their power and richness, through music and dances, customes, gold and weapons in two big parades during a whole day, to fight afterwards for the city.

A couple of days of great spectacle and of meeting the oldest friends I have. And taking pictures, of course. 🙂
