Corpus

"Corpus" is a traditional feast in a lot of places but I know Salamanca and the villages around celebrate. I know about this celebration because my parents are from Salamanca and now I will explain some things about this feast as they celebrate it. 

Corpus is a religious feast that people celebrate in summer, normally. In this celebration, the young people are organized in "peñas" with are groups of people that during this feat must live together in a old house. They must cook and act together. In this party people as a rule, drink a lot. 

Another typical thing are the "encierros" or running of the bulls. In the village draw a route where the bulls will run until the arrive to the bull ring. Normally, in the route, the men run infront of the bulls, I think that they are some crazy. 

And finally, in the bull ring, the bullfighters do "charlotadas". Charlotadas mean that many people jump into the bull ring and try to do the role of "torero" or bullfighter. After a while the bull get to the pens. Lukily in this feast finishes with processions of the Virgin Mary paraded round the village streest with maximum devotion.
Really this is not a good think for me because I hate seeing animals suffer and they a frightened by the hundereds of people.
The other celebrations are not too bad.
