Purisima del Rincon/Gto News
La Judea, the original centennial enactment from Purisima del Rincon in its 152nd Anniversary, is presented in 2025 as the Tradition that Lasts for its People, and it registers 2 important moves that change the way you see it and live it:
- The process to register it as Cultural Intangible Heritage of the State of Guanajuato has officially started
- The process to officially declare its cultural sisterhood with Guanajuato City has also started
This was informed in a press conference during the presentation of the official program of La Judea 2025, to be held next April 16th to 18th.
The press conference was held at the Hermenegildo Bustos State Museum in Purisima del Rincon and chaired by Mayor, Roberto Garcia Urbano, who was with undersecretary of Cultural Development and Artistic Promotion, Alvaro Octavio Lara Huerta; Mayor of Guanajuato City, Samantha Smith, and Director of Social Tourism, Claudia Lorena Campos Delgado, as well as members of the City Council.
Mayor of Purisima del Rincon detailed the process of each of the actions to have La Judea recognized as cultural heritage of Guanajuato and make it part of the decree Samantha Smith promoted in Guanajuato City.
The Officials agreed that now they both work with a vision to protect culture, and above all, because La Judea has transcended our borders supported in each of the tours and presentations of Guanajuato in different parts of the world.
La Judea, said the Officials, has a social importance, having solid reasons since it not only includes culture, but it is a formal preparation of a living heritage that promotes crafts, unity and favors the transmission of values and solid identity.
This time as La Judea is being represented during the Holy Week, there will be other activities observing the 192nd Anniversary of Hermenegildo Bustos in the State Museum that bears his name, from April 14th to the 26th, taking visitors to a journey through its masks.
Organizers expect to have more than the 65,300 visitors registered last year during the whole Holy Week, having 36 thousand visitors only on the Holy Friday; besides the visitors and viewers on social networks.
Among the recommendations to visitors participating in the representation of La Judea it is advised that people keep well hydrated, watch for kids and adolescents, as well as elders.
The City Center will be closed to traffic, and there will be merchants on the Hermenegildo Bustos street from 5 de Mayo street to Independencia Boulevard.
City Security Forces and Civil Protection Units will maintain coordination, supported by State Elements, Firemen and other civil protection organisms.
