每年3月12日至3月19日西班牙瓦伦西亚都会举行传统的火祭节(Fallas festival)，放火迎接春天。

  所谓的fallas 是指上过彩的木头或纸板雕塑而成的作品。这些作品都在火祭节期间被焚烧。

"火祭节"是西班牙最具特色的节日之一。每年入春时,人们都会举行一周的庆祝春天到来的活动。

据介绍,"火祭节"的传统起源于中世纪。

  当时,木匠们为了纪念保护神"圣约瑟夫",形成了燃烧木制雕像的习俗,后来逐渐演变成现在的"火祭节"。

最早的木头和纸板雕像都是木工用下脚料做成的。这些雕像形状不一,希奇古怪,大多取材神话中的人物,以讽喻为主,并带有明显的宗教色彩。

节日高潮便是将这些雕像集中在一起燃烧。在燃烧之前,人们要对所有雕像进行评选,其中最受欢迎的雕像将被保留下来,存在当地的博物馆中。
