Día De Muertos.
We started the tenth month of the year. Here in Mexico,there are a lot of costumes customs and traditions to celebrate. A famous one is "Día de Muertos", here in Mexico. One of our most colorful displays of the year.
The day of the dead, is the result of the mix between cultures (Indigenous and Spanish).
This special day, now is recognized by UNESCO as heritage of humanity.
The principal belief of this tradition is that death is connected deeply to life deeply...so, people (not all share this idea) believe that their dead, return to world (exist a nexus even after death), in on a specific day, and the soul can enjoy of some earthly things (in essence) like food, drinks and other stuff they possessed during life.
Offerings, are the most important symbol. There are offerings in the cemeteries, homes, where relatives of the dead and friends place the offering in honor of the dead, with his favorite meal, and belongings.
Personally, I enjoy these days because of variety of traditional meals, like, dead man's bread ( pan de muerto), sweet pumpkin, mole and so on.
