    Tomato battle in Buñol

    Posted by fingig 13 June 2012

    "La Tomatina" in Buñol is a remarkable way to let off steam and de-stress during the summer holidays. No other town in Spain offers such a famous fun-filled collective fight. It is held on the last Wednesday of August and it attracts people from all over the world. You must dress in white and follow the rules, like squashing the tomato before you catapult it against your target. It involves thousands of people, locals and tourists alike, and everybody is welcome to get involved in the organised chaos. This tradition started over 60 years ago and it is so popular that it is broadcast every year on Spanish television. You do feel better after the fray and it will certainly leave you with a smile on your face. All for free!
