Hola Caroline K.

Clara is absolutely right 😊

In this context, pasos refers to the floats used in religious processions, especially during Easter (Semana Santa) in Spain. These are large platforms that carry statues and are often very ornate, hence muy bonitos.

So here pasos doesn’t mean “steps”, but rather these ceremonial floats.

Hope that helps!

Hasta pronto

Silvia
