an in-depth look at Semana Santa in Andalusia. I spent a full week, diving headfirst into the epic chaos of Semana Santa in Andalusia, where the streets come alive with a whirlwind of processions, incense, and drama that make even the most intense Netflix series look tame! It’s like Coachella for saints, but with more incense and less flower crowns This centuries-old tradition dates back to medieval Spain, where penitents process through the streets in solemn observance of the Passion of Christ, embodying themes of sacrifice, redemption, and solidarity. Today, Semana Santa stands as a powerful cultural and religious expression, uniting generations in a shared reverence for history, spirituality, and the enduring traditions
