In the afternoon, various towns and villages commemorate the Passion of the Christ with a solemn procession of statues. Each statue represents a particular episode in the Passion of the Christ and is carried by bearers. Participants are dressed as biblical characters who take part in the procession in a dignified manner. Many processions include men bearing a cross and sometimes dragging chains tied to their bare feet as an act of faith or penance.
