Spanish April Festival

Seville, located in the southwest of Spain, is the capital of Andalusian Autonomous Region and Provincia De Sevilla, with a population of over 700,000, making it the fourth largest city in China. Every April, the local people celebrate the traditional festival "April Festival". The "April Festival" originated from 1847 is also called "April Market Week" or "April Market". It used to be the local annual livestock fair, and now it has evolved into the most famous folk festival and cultural activity in Andalusia.

According to the folk tradition, the "April Festival" begins two weeks after the annual Holy Week and is held in Los Remidios, on the Keevil River in Gwadar, Seville.

Every year before the "April Festival" begins, people will build a big wooden arch here. Whenever night falls, thousands of light bulbs decorated on the arch will light up at the same time. The arch is the place where the "April Festival" is held. This memorial archway will be demolished every year and will not be completed until next year's festival, so the memorial archway with different styles every year has become a symbol of the festival.
