Procession of Silence

Inspired by Sevillian Holy Week, Morelia's Procession of Silence is one of the most moving religious events in Mexico. Brotherhoods carry life-sized images of Christ and the Virgin lit only by torches, with no music other than a single muffled drum.

The route starts at the Templo de San Diego and crosses Avenida Madero. The whole downtown is closed to traffic and observers are asked to keep silence.
