Holy Week, or Semana Santa as it is called locally, is celebrated the week leading up to Easter Sunday. Every year most of the population heads to the nations beaches, and all business is put on hold throughout the week. The cities, especially Managua, become virtual ghost towns from the Wednesday through Sunday of this week.
