Spain's little-known 'Los Turcos'

A community in Spain's southwestern town of Sax has been nurturing Turkish traditions for the past 100 years.

They call themselves Los Turcos, Spanish for the Turks. Interestingly, they are not ethnic Turks.

Their only connection with Turkey is a local saint Vlas who is buried in the country's eastern province of Sivas.
