The Spanish love a party, and there is always a celebration to enjoy on the Costa Blanca. Your friendly estate agents at Hamiltons Real Estate in Moraira can help you find the perfect townhouses for sale in Teulada. Just a short drive inland from Moraira is the governing town of Teulada which has a very traditional Spanish feel to it.
March and April mark the arrival of spring with plenty of fiestas to enjoy, starting with Easter and Holy Week, which starts with Palm Sunday. The church congregation will put on their Sunday best, the hooded robes of the penitents, or the costumes of Roman Legionaries and biblical characters. They parade through the town to celebrate Mass at the local church with their palm leaves waving in remembrance of Jesus’ arrival in Jerusalem. The palm leaves will be blessed, and they will often be seen later in the day adorning the local houses to bring the blessing to the home itself. With lovely traditional townhouses and apartments for sale in Teulada at reasonable prices, wouldn’t it be wonderful to really enjoy these traditions from your very own home in Spain.
On Holy Thursday, the Easter celebrations start with a mass, and as many believers as possible will take communion in commemoration of the Last Supper, followed in the evening by a silent procession.
The next day, on Good Friday, there are more processions in the evening following the ritual of the burial of Jesus. Those who buy a townhouse in Teulada will be in a prime position to enjoy watching or participating in these processions.
This is very much a family day, which starts with celebrating the resurrection at morning Mass. This is followed by eating a traditional Easter cake, usually given by a godparent to a godchild, and sharing it. There may be more processions and fireworks, as well as family feasts, and the celebrations continue into Easter Monday. On this day, friends and extended family join the festivities with a lot of eating, drinking, and general merriment.
Many who move to this lovely town may eventually need to move to either a smaller or larger property. They will have grown accustomed to and enjoyed the lifestyle and culture. They will therefore look for another house for sale in Teulada. Hamiltons Real Estate (formally Hamiltons of London) can help with both the sale and purchase of villas in Teulada, as well as guiding you to find your perfect new.
Shortly after Easter is the local festival in honour of Sant Vicent Ferrer, Teulada’s patron saint. The celebrations start with the coronation of the queens and open-air dancing. The festival continues through the week with processions, fireworks, giant communal paellas,dancing, pilgrimage, and an athletics competition.
Buying a townhouse in Teulada is made easier when guided by Hamiltons Real Estate, and settling into the Spanish way of life with its many traditions and fiestas is something to really look forward to.
