The egg is dancing again!
Sounds like a weird tittle for a post, doesn't it? But that's precisely what it's about! Every year around Corpus Christi day, the tradition of the Dancing Egg (Ou com Balla) is celebrated in the Old Town of Barcelona and a couple of other places in the Eixample District. The force of the water jets of medieval fountains of different gothic buildings pushes up eggs, that stay dancing on the top.
This year you can see it from today until June 14th, from 10am to 8pm in the following places:
