La Tomatina Speech (Tomato Throwing Festival)



Our group researched about La Tomatina”. It is a tomato throwing festival and I am going to tell you about the place.

La Tomatina is held in Buñol in the province (=state) of Valencia, Spain. Valencia Committee is composed of 3 provinces; Castellón, Valencia and Alicante. The provincial capital, Valencia is a sunny city and famous for oranges and paella. If you are a soccer fan, you know it because of Valencia CF. Buñol is 40 kilometers away from Valencia and lies in 30 kilometers from the Mediterranean Sea (in Japanese 地中海). It also has a good network of roads such as motorways and rail to Madrid. The nearest airport is in Valencia and then you have to take a bus or hire a car to go to Buñol. Also, you can go there by train from Valencia or Madrid.

Buñol has a population of about 9,000. However, more than 30,000 tourists come to this festival, so Buñol fills with many people and tomatoes on the day of the festival.
