Every year around mid-March, regular life comes to a halt in Valencia, as Spain’s third largest city submits itself to the madness of La Fallas. Literally translating to ‘the fires’ in Valencian, La Fallas is an annual festival celebrated for five days in March to mark the end of winter and welcome spring with larger-than-life fireworks. This 200-year-old fiesta is wilder than a traveler’s imagination and a pyromaniac’s dream.
