Semana Santa
Semana santa is what spanish speaking countries call Holy week. Schools in mexico get two eeks off of school so this also counts for their spring break. All the celebrations of easter don't start untill a week before. This is because easter falls on a sunday after the pashfull moon and Holy week is an antire week before that.
This is some ways spanish people celebrate Plam sunday.Palm Sunday or Domingo de Ramos is on the Sunday prior to easter. According to the Bible Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey and the people in the streets laid down palm branches in his path. In many towns and villages in Mexico on this day there are processions reenacting Jesus' triumphal entry, and woven palms are sold outside churches.
Maundy Thursday - Jueves Santo or Holy thursday. On this day most people go and visit seven churches to recall the vigil of the apostels kept in the garden while Jesus prayed before is arrest. So they have foot washing ceremonies and mass with Holy communion.
Good Friday - Viernes Santo . This day Good Friday recalls the crucifixion of Christ. People dress in costumes to react the time of Jesus.Passion plays, dramatic recreations of the crucifixion of Christ, are presented in many communities. The largest takes place in Iztapalapa, south of Mexico City, where over a million people gather every year for the Via Crucis.
Holy Saturday - Sabado de Gloria. In some places there is a custom of burning Judas in effigy because of his betrayal of Jesus.
Easter Sunday - Domingo de Pascua. people don't talk about Easter, chocolate,bunnys or eggs even tho it is easter Sunday in mexico. This is generally a day when people go to Mass and celebrate quietly with their families, though in some places there are festivities with fireworks.
