Tomatina: La guerra más divertida

La Tomatina es una de las guerras más largas de la historia. Se celebra desde 1945. Todo empezó con una disputa entre gente del pueblo y con un puesto de verduras cercano. Así, por casualidad, surgió  una de las fiestas más conocidas del mundo. 

Tomatina de Bunyol. La guerra del tomate.

La fiesta de la Tomatina se celebra el último miércoles de agosto en el municipio valenciano de Buñol. 22.000 personas se dan cita cada año para lanzarse tomates, casi 150 toneladas. 

Todo empieza a las 10 de la mañana, con primer evento, conocido como el “palo jabón”.  Esta prueba consiste en trepar por un palo embadurnado de jabón, para lograr alcanzar un jamón que cuelga de lo más alto, como una bandera. Una vez conseguido que alguien se haga con el preciado jamón, hacia las 11 de la mañana, suena un traca y da comienzo la gran batalla del siglo. A partir de ahí todo es historia. 

La escuela de español Taronja va todos los años a la Tomatina con su alumnos. Nos levantamos bien pronto para hacer un típico almuerzo valenciano y coger fuerzas para la batalla que nos espera. El gran Chef Nando prepara unos jugosos bocadillos que son devorados con alegría. 

Después de almorzar nuestras tropas se dirigen a la lucha, bien pertrechados con gafas, ropa para la ocasión y todo tipo de objetos curiosos.  ¡Ah, y hay reglas, como toda guerra entre gente educada!

  1. No se pueden lanzar objetos. 
  2. No se pueden romper las camisetas de otros participantes. 
  3. Los tomates se deben aplastar antes de tirarlos. 
  4. ¡Cuidado con los camiones que traen los tomates!
  5. Trae tu peor ropa. No la volverás a ver. 
  6. Cámaras de fotos sumergibles, claro.

Great school, excellent oprganization and wonderful teachers. I dont know how it is in high season (July, August), but in June there were small groups of 3 - 7 people, which gave the opportunity to speak frequently. The teachers spoke only Spanish which was a great lesson. I spent two weeks there and regret that it was so short. I highly recommend!

I chose the school for a last minute trip in Valencia (booked Saturday for a start on Monday) based on a quick Google search and was amazed by the classes and the activities organised after class. Probably a third of the students were working professionals and I didn’t feel « too old » as there were quite a few students older than me!

A very enjoyable place to learn Spanish I have just finished a two week intensive course at Escuela Taronja and am already missing it. I am at an early intermediate level and the experience of the last two weeks have boosted my confidence and stretched my knowledge so much. I was a little intimidated by the idea of being middle aged and out of my comfort zone but the school is so supportive, inclusive all all ages and quick to ensure that you are in a class at the right level. I would encourage anyone going to the school to jump in with both feet and take up all the various social opportunities that are on offer,,they were great fun and I met some new friends that I hope to

Amazing school that is well managed and organized. Teachers are well prepared and engaged. School is also organizing extracurricular activities which are either educational or fun and I enjoyed both types. I had also opportunity to stay in one of the school shared flats. They are simple but clean and perfect for the time of stay. I highly recommend! If I could, I would definitely stay at school for a few months. I hope to be back at some point and do another course.

I learned a lot, had a great amount of fun and gained new friends during my two weeks in Taronja. The school offers a lot of fun activities which I would recommend anyone to participate in. The personnel are very helpful with any questions you might have. The teachers I had were great. It was learning based on a lot of interactions and dialogs as it should be. I will definitely come back for more studies and adventures with Taronja.
