"Los Palmeros de Chacao" is a Venezuelan tradition dating back to the year 1770. On Wednesday before Easter, they climb to the Avila hill to select and harvest a number of palm leaves. On Saturday morning they descend to the city until the Church of San José de Chacao. Making several stops and in each one they are received by some traditional party of the country. When they arrive at the Church, the priest makes the blessing of the palms which will be delivered the following day (Palm Sunday) at the corresponding Masses, thus beginning Holy Week.
