The land of enchantment and tradition
Immerse yourself in the essence of the Day of the Dead in Mexico, a poignant celebration that honors our departed loved ones. Celebrated on November 1st and 2nd, this special event symbolizes the connection between the world of the living and the beyond. From October 28th, it is believed that souls return, dedicating this day to those who died tragically. The 30th and 31st are special moments to remember children who departed without baptism. According to the Catholic calendar, November 1st is for children and little ones who passed away, while November 2nd is for adults. This tradition, rooted in pre-Hispanic origins, blends with the beliefs of Spanish conquistadors, maintaining its essence. Offerings, brimming with love, include elements such as candles, incense, water, salt, and the emblematic marigold flower, believed to guide the souls. Altars also feature the delicious bread of the dead, fruits, sugar skulls, and papel picado. Favorite foods and photos of the departed complete these emotive expressions. Experience this unique tradition, where each offering is a beautiful reminder of love and memories that endure over time.
