Local Customs: Sand Sculptures
  • Tip Rating:
  • Every Christmas in Benidorm the artists come out to the beach and make sand sculptures of the Christmas Nativity. As we arrived after Christmas we missed the main event that usually fills the whole beach but we did get to see one.

    Local Customs: Christmas Nativity
  • Tip Rating:
  • I remeber on a trip to Bavaria seeing hand carved figures for the nativity in varying sizes, but I was doing some shopping and came across this Nativity scene which apparently is quite the tradition here.

  • What did surprise me about this Nativity and the fsct that this is quite normal in the Spanish tradition was the detail that went into the carving.

     Interesting travel page. Greetings.

     That's quite a poetic, scenic picture you took of Polop (unlike the less-than-scenic second one of the nativity in the window, hahaha)!

     Very nice, Nigel. The paella and the baguette with Serrano ham sound wonderful! Pizza seems to be a worldwide thing nowadays... :)

     After looking at your Benidorm page, I am rethinking my reluctance to travel to a highly touristic, commercialized Benidorm. You found some great things to see a do! Nice photos.
