Sant Jordi is one of the most famous days in
Catalonia. The 23rd of April, most of the people in Catalonia go out to see the
stands in the streets where you can buy books and roses for this special day.
La Garriga is a
small town but when it’s Sant Jordi all the people from around come to see how
it is. Some stands are in the main street that connects the two main squares in
our town, but those stands are from schools and organisations. However, the
prettiest stands are in`Can Dachs´ square.
The atmosphere in
the square was impressive; there were kids running and having fun while their
parents were looking at all the amazing books and roses. Radio Silenci was
interviewing people. Catalans think that Sant Jordi is the most romantic day to
spend the time with your partner and people inlove, but some of the teenagers
give roses or books to their friends.
A feeling of joy
invades you when the smell of roses impregnates you while walking in the
decorated streets of La Garriga. Young people share with you love poems and the
managers of the stands share with you cookies or some pictures about Sant
Jordi’s legend. The music spreads through the town and makes you want to dance
everywhere. When people finish visiting all the stands they spend time meeting
friends, family or their partner on this special day while they drink something
refreshing on the sunny day.
Simply, in the
square of Can Dachs you can feel the passion that there is on this day. When
you enter in the square a feeling of happiness invades your body and you feel
as if you were in another world where the only thing there are- roses, books
and people passionately in love with Sant Jordi.
