EN: Holy Week
The one week a year when most of Manila empties out and heads to the beach or the province. For the devout, it's a time for Visita Iglesia, Pabasa, and processions. For many others, it's the first long vacation of the year. The TV stations stop showing noontime shows and play 'The Ten Commandments' on a loop. Traffic disappears, but good luck finding an open convenience store on Good Friday.
From Spanish 'Semana Santa' (Holy Week).
Refers to the Holy Week in the Christian tradition, a major holiday and cultural event in the Philippines. Also known as 'Mahal na Araw'.
