Moj\u00e1car now has its municipal nativity scene installed and open to the public, officially inaugurated with the blessing of the Santa Mar\u00eda Church Parish Priest, Mr Victor Manuel Fern\u00e1ndez and in the presence of the local Mayor, Francisco Garc\u00eda Cerd\u00e1, and his government team and a large public who, as has become habitual, come along to this religious event that marks the beginning of Christmas.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The nativity scene has been set in the Moj\u00e1car landscape, as it has been represented in recent years, with its most emblematic buildings integrated into the representation of the birth of Jesus. Country houses in the style of the locality, Moj\u00e1car castle, the mosque and also recreating details of the traditionally made goods and fabrics.
\nWithin the landscape that surrounds the nativity scene, the plants are natural and native, hence giving it a typically local atmosphere.
\nIt has 35 figures that represent the most representative characters of the most traditional nativity scenes, and this year more figures have been added that have been donated by a private individual to Moj\u00e1car municipality. They are very realistic, acquired by the Local Council more than 50 years ago from a well-known workshop in Murcia, with Neapolitan tradition and typical inspiration of the Murcian nativity scene masters in their work.
\nFollowing the blessing, those who went along could enjoy sweets that, accompanied by a good cup of hot chocolate, extended the celebration with a now marked Christmas atmosphere and the excitement, in both children and adults, due to the proximity of these festivities that begin with this inauguration.
