The Spaniards love to celebrate, especially on their holidays.
Every year on August 15 Barcelona celebrates the Assumption Day in the district of Gràcia. The residents turn the streets into a colorful playground with sculptures and other home-made decorations for the Fiesta de Gràcia.
For 10 days you will find people dancing in the streets in a huge parade with fire-breathing dragon costumes and fireworks while the bands play all night long.
