More a tourist attraction than a tourist trap: Popayán gets really crowded during Easter time. In Colombia, the most famous Semana Santa celebrations take place in Popayán and Mompox, where the Spanish colonial forces built six churches and a chapel, all used in the Semana Santa observations. Monday through Thursday of Semana Santa are taken up with religious processions, retreats, sermons and other celebratory events. On Thursday, the Last Supper is reenacted, following by the Viernes Santo (Good Friday) crucifixion with masses and solemn rites. Sábado de Gloria, or Saturday, is filled with anticipatory prayers and rites, processions and religious fervor. Domingo de Resurrección, (Easter Sunday) is a joyous day with masses, eucharistic rites and processions.
