In Cuenca, Spain, Easter is an important celebration where people participate in religious processions. Nazarens dress up in tunics and join the processions along with sculptures of religious figures. Schools have a one week holiday during Easter so families can attend the processions together and enjoy traditional snacks like Torrijas and Pestiños.
