A CURIOUS tradition is back again this year to entertain the locals of towns in the Valencian community.
For the second year in a row, the Hermitage of Sanz, nestled in the heart of Benidorm’s Huerta, has revived the ‘La caga del burro’ event.

The tradition consists of dividing a piece of land into multiple numbered plots – mirroring a game board.
