Indian Immigrants in Ramblas Catalunya | Barcelona, Spain

Indians in Spain celebrate Vaisakhi, an ancient North Indian harvest festival, which includes the passing out of huge amounts of food. A procession began on Ramblas de Catalunya, a major street in Barcelona, and continued along Ramblas Raval, and ended at the Plaza St. Augustine.

Because of its location in the Iberian Peninsula, the territory comprising modern Spain has always been at the crossroads of human migration. Spain has experienced high population growth as a result of immigration flows, despite a birth rate that is only half of the replacement level.
