The most important of all fiestas
in Alicante is 'Las Hogueras', a fiesta that
exalts the fecundity of the woman, as much for aesthetics as for her essence;
the Bellea del Foc represents during the entire year the alicantine woman.
This sympathy becomes extensive in the parades where the presence of beautiful
girls is applauded by the crowd that fills the streets. Another important
fiestas in Alicante are 'Semana Santa', 'Santa
Faz', the carnival and the 'Moros y Cristianos' (Moorish and Christian).
