Answer 1

Romeria del Rocio, Andalucia, Spain

Party, wine, dancing Sevillans all night. Large crowd from all over Spain. Now, no doubt, famous. I walked the route from Sevilla through the Marismas and to the village.

When I was there, only the small section with the arched door on the right of the church was there, quite small with just the three windows and there was no road in, you walked or drove a primitive track.It has been paved for years now.The second door on the right of the bldg was just being built and was a separate bldg.

Also, Soma Wild Horse Chase: Haramachi City, Fukushima, Japan

Exciting. Used to be able to mingle among the charging horses if one so had the inclination ~ with a camera and looked like they knew what they were doing. Wild, is right.
