They represent two characters that some time ago had a small role in the history of Cari\u00f1ena.<br \/>\nThey are:<br \/>\nManuel: The male giant. This man was the town crier who made public pronouncements on the streets.<br \/>\nPilar: The female figure. This lady was a healer since she was a child and had the power to see contractures and healed all those diseases only by touching her patients.<br \/>\nThese two giants weigh 40 kilograms and measure 4 meters long, they are made in one piece, which means they cannot be disassembled for transportation and storage.<br \/>\nAccompanying a troupe of dulzaineros with their bagpipes, clarinet and drums, they make these curious giants dance.<br \/>\nBesides these giants, the city has to liven up the streets with six cabezudo; big-headed characters that run after the children, while they make fun of their heads.<\/p>\n<h3>EL ROSC\u00d3N DE SAN VALERO<\/h3>\n<p>This delicious dessert is made especially when the feast of the saint is celebrated, January 29.<br \/>\nAfter the mass is held in honor of San Valero, in the morning, along with the procession of the relic of the Saint, this rosc\u00f3n can be tasted in Plaza de Espa\u00f1a (Cari\u00f1ena).

In 1960 it was held for the first time as we know it today, and it is a reminder of the ancient custom of giving the welcome to the kings of Spain with fountains of wine.<br \/>\nCari\u00f1ena was chosen to host this event for the Aragonese authorities, thus recognizing its historical trajectory and wine capital in Arag\u00f3n.<br \/>\nIn its first celebration grape stomping and wine fountains were the acts that lead the celebration. There was also a parade of floats, music concerts and a notable presence of authorities. Since that first time, it&#8217;s been almost half a century and the party has increasingly gained fame and recognition not only in Arag\u00f3n but in the rest of Spain as well.<br \/>\nOver time, they have been adding new activities to the festival, giving it a more open character and achieving to increase its appeal, without losing any of its original essence. Moreover, in recent years a traditional act has been carried out: the Wine Train. An old locomotive and wagons were used in the past to move several hundreds of visitors to Cari\u00f1ena. Today, it takes people from Zaragoza to Cari\u00f1ena to taste the delicious wines of this land.<br \/>\nThe festival has thus become an important showcase for local wineries, offering a beautiful image of the wine tradition of this land while bringing people together for a good time to be had by all.<\/p>\n<h3>RESTAURANTS<\/h3>\n<p>LA TORRETA<br \/>\nPza.
