We're on dates in which they can take stock of what happened, if we were to define a word which is representing the Holy Year Jubilee for our city is serious: fiasco.

And I do not exaggerate the fiasco defined as all the hopes placed in this global event to celebrate in Caravaca fortunately every seven years, is like the Olympics of Christianity to date set.

Hoteliers, merchants, tourists, the residents of Caravaca, each and every one of them is the most important barometer in measuring the degree of acceptance and profitability of this Holy Year caravaqueño.

If you ask any of them, most likely from his lips out a common discouragement, and even a local barista told me this morning "I can not wait to pass this Holy Year," has been a propaganda hoax.

The economic impact is practically nil and nonexistent, the city has barely noticed the event something religious-cultural-tourism, but I can go further yet, now is when we are all visitors and citizens of Caravaca noticing too much of the serious lack of infrastructure as promised over and over again by the team of popular government.

Yes it is true that we are indirectly promoting the economies of other towns such as Lorca, with good hotel infrastructure that is being supplied to customers who are destined to the Ciudad de la Cruz in his Holy Year, a fact that worries us because while other cities in the region are doing their "August" with the Jubilee Year, the very Caravaca this orphan quality tourism and stays that make the tourists spend the night and eat in our village.

This is something from long ago advised UPyD we have not been able to prepare for this event, despite past few years had very good economically for having undertaken necessary infrastructure.

We believe a good tourism policy is increasingly necessary, because time is on our side, and a change of course at this time would be the best way to settle the future for tourism project Caravaca de la Cruz.

For now we will comply with the tourists go to see the race through the streets of the old or the planes with the Pilgrims, the odd show, hundreds of brochures and an ad in cinemas Alicante.
