A casteller getting ready before going on to the main plaza of a Catalan town
Don’t know who the castellers are? Check here, here, and videos here (I always get goosebumps when the music starts). They were my favourite element of Catalan culture and the energy in the square when they succeed in putting together a difficult tower is ubelievable… My husband used to say that if we lived in Catalonia for good, he would have joined a group of castellers.
Wow! What a great photo! :)
You know, I too get goosebumps when those gralles begin to play. One of my favourites, though, is being woken up by the grallers playing their toc de matinades (morning tune) on some holidays.
Cheers!
