The procession used to be (at least more) silent and solemn, but now it's bordering on a parade. The sales officially stop (or at least move away from the street) during the procession. The next day we witnessed an old Semana Santa tradition, people dressing up as a bull and other "scary" creatures to scare people into confessing their sins and restoring/claiming faith during Holy Week. I don't know how long ago it stopped being scary, but it was definitely captivating!
