I'm alfonso I'm 43 years old I´m living in Cartagena a small city in the north of Colombia .

I want to talk about the feast of Lady of candelaria and La popa convent of candelaria

The feast of Our Lady of La Candelaria,it is very popular in my city , where you can eat
tradicional food , each year I and my family go up to the mountain , because on top of the
mountain there are a small church calls LA POPA or CONVENT OF CANDELARIA where you can
appreciate all city with a beautiful view covering the Caribbean Sea, the island of Tierrabomba,
and the tourism industry.

The feast of Our Lady of La Candelaria, deeply rooted in the cultural tradition of Cartagena, unfolds
amidst cumbias, dancing, bagpipes, and a huge sample of local cuisine. The celebration is held
annually in late January and early February, when the city dresses up to celebrate its Catholic faith

Today it is one of the most visited sites of Cartagena de Indias
