Headquarters for the procession of silence


At the headquarters for the Procession of Silence there was a museum.  
These are examples of the hand woven silk scarves that the women wear during the procession.  
They have intricate knotted designs on the ends. The women hand them down to their daughters to wear each year on this special occasion.






These men are working on the base structure of a float for the procession.  every year they make new designs on the base. 
 the Alter tops are kept in the church during the year to be brought out specially for the parade. 
 All during this week different alters are set up in churches and in front of the homes of the devout catholics.
