Carnival (Jan - Feb)
From the beginning of January you can see, especially on week-ends, disguised groups rehearsing in the streets, singing, dancing, making collections between the passers-by to be able to finish their costumes. These preparations culminate in the last "fat" days before Lent, when from Shrove Sunday to Ash Wednesday work rests and carnival is at its frenzy. |
