Blas was a victim of the persecution to which the Christians of that time were subjected, a fact that forced him to take refuge until Constantine freed the Christians, it was then when Blas of Sebaste returned to his episcopal see under the title of bishop. On February 3, 316 he was arrested and executed by the emperor Lunicius, since that day, the legend has endured among us, making his famous throat cures even greater. There are many legends about it, but the one that sounds the strongest is the one in which Blas de Sebaste, bishop at the time, miraculously cured a local peasant, a child, who had a thorn stuck in his throat. Thanks to this legend, St. Blaise was remembered for his divine power to heal people&#8217;s throats and even today, people still believe in the gift of the cord that bears his name, the cord of St. Blaise.    <a href=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Cordones-de-San-Blas.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6193\" src=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Cordones-de-San-Blas-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"San Blas strands\" width=\"618\" height=\"464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Cordones-de-San-Blas-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Cordones-de-San-Blas-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Traditions<\/strong>: Every February 3, San Blas is celebrated, a day, in which tradition marks the steps to follow:<\/p>\n<div class=\"box success  \"><div class=\"box-inner-block\"><i class=\"fa tie-shortcode-boxicon\"><\/i>\n            <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Purchase a cotton cord for each family member (choose from multiple colors).<\/li>\n<li>Blessing the cord in any catholic temple.<\/li>\n<li>Wear it around the neck for 9 days<\/li>\n<li>Burn it on the ninth day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n            <\/div><\/div>\n<p>A routine by which San Blas protects the bearer of the cord from throat ailments and ensures good health until February 3.<a href=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Cordones-de-San-Blas-a-la-venta.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-6191\" src=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Cordones-de-San-Blas-a-la-venta-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Cordones de San Blas for sale\" width=\"618\" height=\"464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Cordones-de-San-Blas-a-la-venta-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Cordones-de-San-Blas-a-la-venta-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 618px) 100vw, 618px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Popularity<\/strong>: This festivity attracts thousands of people to our towns and cities, this is the case of Bilbao, a city where more than 50 kilometers of cordon are usually sold between the stalls that are established in the esplanades of the Arenal and San Nicolas.

This town of Bizkaia, becomes a massive party in which farmers and ranchers expose their best specimens. A great display of gastronomic power in which a beautiful representation of the animals that have lived in our farms for decades is never missing: Friesian cows, Pyrenean oxen, Latxa sheep or donkeys from Las Encartaciones are just a small sample. As for vegetables, legumes and fruits, we also have a nice range of colors in the stands that the BBK sets up next to the Abadi\u00f1o&#8217;s tasting room, another of the spaces that we cannot lose sight of.   <a href=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Toro-pirenaico-en-Abadi%C3%B1o-San-Blas.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-11029\" src=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Toro-pirenaico-en-Abadi%C3%B1o-San-Blas-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Pyrenean bull in Abadi\u00f1o, San Blas\" width=\"618\" height=\"464\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The San Blas festival program adds to all the above, a great recital of Herri Kirolak (village sports in Basque), in which the great protagonists are usually the Idi Probak (oxen trials) and eskupilota (pelota mano in Basque) matches, two references around which always moves a nice amount of bets, a classic that surrounds every Basque sport.<a href=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/San-Blas-en-Abadi%C3%B1o.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-11028\" src=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/San-Blas-en-Abadi%C3%B1o-1024x851.jpg\" alt=\"San Blas in Abadi\u00f1o\" width=\"618\" height=\"514\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We recommend going by public transport or leaving the car on the outskirts of the town, because, although the sidewalks and gardens of Abadi\u00f1o become sporadic parking lots during the day of San Blas, it is never enough for the thousands of visitors that the town receives during this special day.<a href=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Burros-en-Abadi%C3%B1o-San-Blas.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-11023\" src=\"http:\/\/turismovasco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Burros-en-Abadi%C3%B1o-San-Blas-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Donkeys in Abadi\u00f1o, San Blas\" width=\"618\" height=\"464\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Abadi\u00f1o becomes San Blas, in the mecca of Basque traditions and culture, a nice day to know the ins and outs of our culture.
