The main event is an 8 km walk starting at 8 a.m. in the city's cathedral and ending at the monastery of Santa Faz where a relic--a piece of cloth allegedly used to wipe Jesus's face while he was on the cross--is kept. The religious aspect is vastly overshadowed by a general fiesta held around the event. This year's edition was last Thursday. http://www.greatpix.eu/Other/Santa-Faz-2011 As always, comments and critique are welcome and appreciated.
