ALBACETE, 15 (EUROPE PRESS)
The residents of Albacete can already visit from this Thursday the traditional Bethlehem of the Provincial Council, which returns to its usual location, the patio of the Cloister of the La Asunción Cultural Center.
With an area of almost 40 square meters and more than 150 figures, the exhibition shows eight scenes created by the nativity scene maker Alejandro García Moreno, who wanted to hide several surprises and a tribute to his father, who, he says, helps him throughout the process of making creation.
Among these surprises, some small frogs stand out, Odún and Dana, that García has placed throughout the entire Nativity scene, with the aim of encouraging children and adults to look for them, while they investigate all the details that the exhibition keeps.
“If they find those frogs, it is important that they take a photo and upload it to Instagram, -following and tagging @Belenes_alejandro_garcia-, thus entering the draw for a nativity scene portal,” he explained.
Likewise, the nativity scene maker wanted to wink at the new times, incorporating modern toys.
“The Magi no longer bring only gold, frankincense and myrrh, they bring current games,” he noted.
A perfect opportunity for all visitors to gather ideas and write a letter to Their Majesties of the East, which they can deposit right there, in the Royal Mailbox.
In addition, to immortalize these Christmas moments, there will be a photocall, available from December 22, by the Luis Vizcano team.
The Bethlehem can be visited until January 6, Monday through Friday, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
On January 24, 31 and 5, it will only be open in the morning, while it will remain closed on the holidays of December 25 and 26, as well as January 1.
Thus, from the Diputación, its president, Santiago Cabaero, has encouraged all Albaceteans to come to the Bethlehem and upload their photos to social networks, as well as visit the Provincial Route of Bethlehem, which this year has been expanded by almost a third, Going from 24 to 36 nativity scenes, reaching a total of 21 towns, among which are Helln, Almansa, Elche de la Sierra, San Pedro, Aguas Nuevas, La Roda, Munera or Chinchilla.
“This year we have also wanted to expand the route and reach more municipalities so that the entire province can enjoy these nativity scenes and the Christmas festivities”, he concluded.
