LOCAL HOLIDAY: CHINITA´S  FAIR!!



My favorite holiday is the chinita´s fair. The people of Maracaibo celebrate the Chinita's fair in November for three days, from November 17th to November 19th. One of the main city avenues, Bella Vista, is closed for several blocks and the city puts lights along the whole avenue. The lights stay up for months, until after Christmas. There are firework shows and street vendors, and hundreds of thousands of people celebrate all night. The Chinita’s fair officially begins the last Saturday of October when the Virgin is taken down from the altar in which she rests. She tours all over the Zulia State and returns to the Basilica to start all the religious festivities.
