EASTER
Semana Santa or Holy week in English is a busy part of the year in most Spanish cities, towns and villages, Nerja being no exception to this. Although religion plays an increasingly small part in many Spaniards lives, Easter continues to be a very large public display of the religious roots of Spain with processions all over the country. Each procession has its own significance and mood and is the culmination of much work by the different brotherhoods that take such an integral role as part of each town?s celebrations.
