Day 4

Valencia arriving there by train and the second I set foot outside the train I saw the reason why this was one of the best festival of the season the //Fiestas de Las Fallas//. Fireworks, music and bullfighting in every direction it was all out madness but I loved it. Talking to the locals they told me that according to old traditions each of Valencia's //barrios// (neighborhoods) build giant caricatures in which they are then paraded through the streets and judged then after one whole week of parading and partying they are set afire at midnight.

I spent the whole day and night dancing, eating and gazing at the everything around me I ended the night my watching a few bullfights.
