La Semana Santa is one holiday during the year where in most<br />
Spanish-speaking countries entire towns, businesses, schools, and government<br />
close for at least four days, Thursday through Sunday. People that have<br />
relocated to other places often go back to their hometowns. Others take<br />
advantage of the long break to go to the countryside or beach. Entire<br />
communities come together for Semana Santa celebrations. In some places,<br />
religious processions fill the streets each day of the week from Palm Sunday to<br />
Easter; in others, Thursday and Friday are the most important days. Most<br />
Semana Santa traditions are hundreds of years old and originated in Spain, but<br />
many now have a unique twist due to the mix of cultures in each country.<br />
