Practically for three decades Las Torres de Cotillas has a majestic Cabalgata de Reyes Magos, an initiative of the AMPA of the "Divino Maestro" School that took place in 1992 for the town hall to regain it and since then the streets of our town have been filled with the best feeling the most magical night of the year for adults and children.
A symbolism that the biblical passages collect with the phrase "a light shone" to those Kings of the East, the radiance before our eyes of the glory that emanates from God.
In the face of darkness, ignorance, lukewarmness, confusion, disheveled course, absurdity triumphs that light that enlightens the people of the peoples who lavish themselves on this Earth in search of truth, honesty, wisdom. ..
Light that leads to the Birth of Jesus, to the portal of Bethlehem, a star that the Magi have seen and that, according to the Gospel of Saint Matthew, "came to stand over where the child was", a star that leads to the little God who receives.
Lights of Night of Kings, guided by the star, sign of a great birth in which, in addition to serving as the basis for the numbering of years and days, also marks the value of man, the dignity of people.
That municipalities such as Las Torres de Cotillas take forward a procession of Three Wise Men is to give a beautiful, endearing and artistic way a beautiful news, that every day must be free, the truth of things, the future of man and of the world through an example of salvation, renewal, respect and permanent essence of humanism and dignity.
