Description
Summary:"There on the top of São Benedito, where sun and moon alum. Up there is a path where Our Lady walks. Rhythmical with the strong beat of the drums, the Ternos de Congadas stand out in the streets of neighborhoods and villages. The processions depart from the community barracks until their final arrival in the churches that have Our Lady of the Rosary and Saint Benedict as their worshiped saints. The flagpole becomes imposing with the flag of these saints, and the crown of the king of the Congo is handed over to the family that will continue the festivities the following year.
