How Valencia Celebrates Spring | Las Fallas De Valencia Festival 2022

Posted on March 11, 2023 by agogo22

The annual Las Fallas festival in Valencia, Spain, heralds the arrival of spring. Since 2016, it has been included on UNESCO’s List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Thousands of people gather in the streets. The main attraction are the papier-mâché figures, some more than 20 meters high – called Fallas.

Antonio Segura, alias Dulk, is a pop surrealist artist who’s created the main Falla of Valencia in 2022. His Falla has a clear message: protect nature and protect what you love.
