Fallas is a traditional festival celebrated in Valencia, Spain, held annually in March. The event honors Saint Joseph, the patron saint of carpenters, and features the creation and display of large, intricate sculptures made of wood, cardboard, and other materials. These sculptures, known as ninots, often depict satirical scenes and characters, reflecting social and political themes. The festival culminates on March 19th, when the ninots are set ablaze in a spectacular display of fireworks and fire. This act symbolizes the arrival of spring and the cleansing of the old. The Fallas festival also includes parades, music, and traditional food, making it a vibrant cultural celebration.
