ORIGIN :

Easter is a "mobile" celebration, ie does not have a preset date in the annual calendar and commemorates six weeks after Carnival, in remembrance of the Biblical story of Jesus fasting for 40 days in the desert.

The most important dish of Holy Week in Ecuador is a thick soup called Fanesca. The tradition is to eat the Fanesca Santos on Thursday, as the Last Supper.

The Roman Catholic Church is the Catholic Church more believers in the world, which are under the authority of the pope. Easter, according to the tradition of the Roman Catholic Church, begins with Palm Sunday, when Jesus enters Jerusalem and is greeted with palm leaves, and ends with Holy Saturday. Passover begins after Holy Saturday. The following are the dates of the Gregorian calendar for 2016.


FOOD :

At this time, the protagonists of the dishes are the products of the cornfields: nopales, squash blossoms, purslane, moles, corn and beans, among others. Fish and shellfish also play a central role. Mexican cooks do wonders with vegetables and also with seafood: shrimp cakes, tamales charales or nopal, potato cakes, poblano chiles stuffed with cheese or tuna ... the list is as extensive as rich in flavors, aromas and textures.

TRADITIONS AND  ACTIVITIES 

During Lent, many Catholics abstain from eating red meat, this period is known as waking. These days meats and sausages are replaced by delicious dishes where vegetables, legumes, fish and shellfish that Mexico produces have a leading role.




Though celebrations vary according to the customs of each region, there are certain general aspects that are similar throughout the country. In some places, the traditions of Easter are especially colorful and spectacular, both by the fervor with which people performed as folk elements that adorn them. In most are held processions with images of Christ, or passion plays.

What happens during Holy Week in Mexico is much more than a set of colorful performances and pilgrimages, is the manifestation of culture, faith and unity of a country through its traditions. The family spirit, hope and hospitality of a people reach their maximum expression in these traditions involving much of the Mexican territory.




In other cities such as San Miguel de Allende, the townspeople and hundreds of visitors themselves become the attraction when they participate in the "procession of silence". A serious atmosphere is very present in these activities during which spectators and participants reflect on the betrayal and crucifixion of Jesus.

Carnival in Rio the Janeiro


Carnival has been a massive party for centuries. The Greeks celebrated many festivals of its kind in honor of the god of wine. The Romans continued to celebrate in honor of Bacchus and during Saturnalia, where men spent an entire day in a drunken state and according to tradition, the masters and soldiers exchanged clothes. The Roman Catholic Church later adopted these celebrations until Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent in the Christian calendar. "Entrudo" is the name of a Portuguese festival which apparently is the source of the Rio Carnival. The first dance of Carnival in Rio was held in 1840 and participants danced polkas and waltzes, as opposed to the samba, which was not introduced until 1917.
