The city of Manila is currently celebrating the Feast of the Black Nazarene, culminating with the biggest religious act in the country: the annual Traslacion<\/em>, or parade of the Black Nazarene through its streets.<\/p>\n

An estimated 15-18 million people are expected to take part in the feast being held in Manila, Tagum City, and Cagayan De Oro City. Manila alone expects at least 2 million devotees to participate in the Traslacion.<\/p>\n

The Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) earlier released re-routing plans<\/a> for today\u2019s Traslacion based on the route they gave last January 3:<\/a><\/p>\n
