Mexico is a place with a lot of traditions, everybody would like to be in Mexico due to many traditions that we have. One of the traditions most importants in Mexico is Day of the Dead or "Día de muertos". Do you want to know more about this tradition?

 

 

     When November comes to Mexico, the whole country is full of mourning for their loved ones who are no longer among us. We do not cry for they, but neither were glad. We celebrate and remember them, thinking that they are with us one more time. It is a great tradition. Another thing that we do is a offering or "ofrenda" for the Day of the Dead, which is made of a decoration with shredded paper, salt, water, candy skulls, copal, incense, Zempoalxóchitl flowers and "Pan de Muerto".

 

 

     Some people offer a dinner with the favorite food for their dead because think that they return once more. This is a popular belief in Mexico and a beautiful tradition that perform Mexicans.
