Video Description

For people who celebrate Easter, it's not all bunnies and candy. In southern Mexico, the Catholic faithfuls begin Holy Week with an overnight procession. Good Friday in Australia has a more sedate feel, while in the Czech Republic, an old tradition is given a fresh spin. Peruvians in central Lima celebrate with a procession in which worshippers wear purple while carrying the "Lord of the Miracles."
