Nazareno's andas revamped with sunroof, more rigid materials
The andas carrying the Black Nazarene image has been redesigned for the 2025 Traslacion with a sunroof made of tempered glass to improve visibility for spectators in buildings and allow natural light onto the image.
The carriage now features stronger stainless metal materials and reinforced wheels to enhance its durability.
Blowers have been installed inside the glass enclosure to address moisture issues that caused misting last year.
Slanted corners have been added to the andas to prevent devotees from jumping on it.
The redesigned andas includes a tempered glass enclosure with a roof and lights, an exhaust fan and ventilation system, and first aid equipment.
