The road that crosses the La Torre district of Valencia has become the atypical scene of a pilgrimage in which pilgrims, many of whom are accompanied by their pets – which they have placed safely in carriers – carry only water and, if necessary, a reed to lean on.
The mark that the water left on the walls is at least a meter and a half high. The scene is full of water, mud and piled up vehiclesstacked at different heights, broken and block the passages.
