Conservare i valori e le tradizioni è un dovere della cultura italiana .....................................................................................La Festa di San Giorgio di Modica Il momento più suggestivo della Festa di San Giorgio di Modica è rappresentato dalla processione che si snoda per le vie del centro abitato, sia nella parte alta che in quella bassa, dopo che il simulacro esce dalla chiesa accolto dalla gente in festa, da una raffica di volantini colorati e dai fuochi d'artificio. Il simulacro che viene portato a spalla dai cosiddetti Sangiorgiari, è attribuito ad un artista napoletano e risale al 1860. Prima di allora veniva invece portata in processione l'urna reliquaria. I Sangiorgiari lungo il tragitto, procedono a passo veloce e a tratti anche correndo, simulando così l'andatura a galoppo. In serata, il simulacro fa rientro nella sua chiesa, trasportato di corsa e, per tradizione, viene fatto girare più volte tra le navate, per poi essere riposto nel transetto, usanza che risale al periodo borbonico. A quel tempo infatti furono vietate le manifestazioni esterne, per cui la processione si svolgeva all'interno della chiesa.

Religious traditions are one of the few realities that have its roots in the Italian territories, your photo and the caption perfectly tell the moment of devotion of the Sangiorgiari and the devotees in St. George.
The day you took me to visit the Church dedicated to St. George I found myself in front of the simulacrum of the Saint, I photographed it and I noticed its beauty and its religious figure.
Congratulation Rosario, another beautiful scene from new location ;-)
A dear greeting my friend :-) :-P
