Carpet on the La Merced Church

Alfombra en Iglesia LaMerced



Carpet on the La Merced Church

Part of what makes the Holy Week different in Antigua, is the "Alfombras" or carpets.

On the streets where the procession is going, people create those carpets, some with plant, and with other kinds of materials.

Lots of pretty and colorful designs.

This was the first "Alfombra" I saw that day, outside the church of La Merced, the starting point of the procession.
