The Flower and Palm Festival is a vibrant annual event in Panchimalco that blends Catholic Christian and pre-Columbian customs. Participants weave palms decorated with Flores de Mayo (plumerias) to create a colorful and fragrant display. The festival includes music, dance, and traditional costumes, with revelers carrying a statue of the Virgin Mary through the streets. It’s a magnificent celebration of culture and diversity, showcasing how a community can unite and celebrate its heritage.
