In
the month of May Madrid celebrates the fiestas in honour of San
Isidro, the city’s patron saint.
Bullfights
play an important role in these celebrations, with a top-level
line-up and a fair that lasts some two weeks, with normal bullfights
and “rejoneo” (horseback bullfights). Furthermore, the Spanish
capital’s most traditional streets come alive with concerts,
performances, competitions, street entertainment and open-air
parties. On 15 May, the feast of San Isidro itself, there is a
procession/pilgrimage and a public lunch.
The
bullring of Las Ventas, Madrid is considered as the temple of
bullfighting. It is every toreo dreams to get in. Succeeding in, for
those men who wear the Light Suit, is the highest reward since the
difficulty is proportional of the challenge. Don’t forget, in Las
Ventas, everything is magnified, triumphs and failures.
Today I'm showing you pictures of corridas taken in May 2010
