Fallas

My school's "falla"

The "fallas" are a very typical Valencian celebration. Single it is celebrated throughout the Valencian Community and in dates 16, 17, 18 and 19 of March (Saint Jose day's). It consists of four days of much celebration in the Falleros country places, "mascletás", firecrackers, but mainly celebration. Personally I like the "fallas" by the celebration that there is in Valencia during these days. They give prizes to the "fallas" that better are done, although normally they occur* it to the fault that more money has been spent. There are greater falleras of each fault, thing that to my seems to me a stupidity, because it is a very peculiar way to spend the money in a thing that the last day of faults is going away to burn…

Marta, Paula and Me in "fallas"

It's the day of "plantà", the day that mounts the fault, the day of "cridà", when the greater fallera of Valencia (the one of the "falla" of the city council), says to the Valencians that they are united to the celebrations of faults, "nit del foc", when they do a great “castle” and the night of “cremà” when they burn the "falla".
