In this picture you see another of the most typical folklore icons of Catalonia: the 'Gegants' (=giants). Each town has its own couple of Giants. Big towns, like Barcelona, have several couples.
During the Barcelona festivals they dance and walk along the streets in the center of Barcelona, accompanied by the 'Cap Grossos' (=big heads). One strong man supports the heavy 'gegant' for several hours.
