The procession of the Black Nazarene is a commemoration of the wooden statue’s transfer (Traslacion) from the Recollect church in Intramuros, Manila, where it was first enshrined, to St. John the Baptist Church in Quiapo, Manila, on Jan. 9, 1787. Last year, an estimated three million devotees trooped to the 6.4-kilometer procession route. Marielle Medina, Inquirer Research
