During the processions, various fraternities carry floats with religious relics. The majority of the outfits worn resemble the racist hate group the KKK, but they are not to be confused with the KKK.
This photo was from the procession on Jueves Santo (Holy Thursday). The lights of the city are turned off, the people in the procession only carry candles and everyone is in silence. This one was my favorite.
This photo was taken on the Día de la Resurrección (Resurrection Day).
In my opinion, Semana Santa is something you should see once in your life. But if you´re not hardcore Catholic eventually the processions will get a bit boring. But like I said, definitely a must-see.
