The San Fermin Festival began in Spain on July 6. It will continue till July 15. The festivities began with the fireworks called "Chupinazo". Revellers dressed in red and white filled the town hall square when the fireworks marked the opening of the festival. Music and horseback performances also marked the ceremony. The festival is best known for its bullfights. Of all traditions surrounding the varied world of bullfighting, the horse mounted "rejoneo" bullfighter is among the least understood. Those who love it consider it a skilled art form; others see it as a cruel and bloody crime for the sake of entertainment.
