Trying to get from Cali to Popayán was difficult: a crowd was patiently waiting to get on a bus to the White City. And when we finally approached Popayán, I noticed that there was a lot of traffic trying to get into the city. It was Maundy Thursday, Jueves Santo, and the Semana Santa or Easter celebrations that had been going on since almost a week already were approaching their culmination. When later on I walked around the city streets, I noticed how they were full of people - a sharp contrast with the quiet town I had visited a few months before. Especially close to the churches, many people were gathering around street markets selling all kinds of handicrafts from all over Colombia. Unlike normal days, churches were open for visitors.
