Sant Jordi

Marina Paredes Roger Cortada

Hello my friend,

We are students of Maristes Montserrat Lleida, and we are going to talk about a typical celebration of Catalonia: Sant Jordi, on the 23^rd of    April. During this celebration, it’s tradition that men give a rose to the women and the women give a book to men, and this is because there is a legend:

“There’s a dragon who destroyed cities and ate the people. One day, kidnapped  the princess of a castle, and a knight wanted to rescue her. In the blood of the dragon grew a very beautiful rose.”

We like a lot that day, it’s very beautiful.

Lots of regards,

                      Marina  & Roger Cortada
