世界最大吃蝸牛節創造新紀錄

L'Aplec del Caragol is an annual festival in the Spanish city of Lleida that celebrates the region's love for snails. This lively event draws in more than 200,000 visitors and 15,000 participants each spring. The festival grounds are filled with party tents, barbecues, and dinner tables where friends and family gather to enjoy snails and dance to music. It's a time for people to reunite with friends they only see once a year for the festival. In addition to the food, the festival offers various activities such as a children's snail race and an aioli-making contest. Traditional snail dishes like snails cooked in a sauce of spicy paprika and herbs, and snails cooked using a square paella placed directly onto an open fire are available for visitors to enjoy. The festival also provides a glimpse into Catalan culture with activities like human towers and traditional dances. Aplec del Caragol is a unique and vibrant celebration that brings people together to enjoy delicious food and rich cultural experiences.
