• Mixquic - Visitors will stroll through the streets to admire the altars set up in homes and squares. Each altar is distinct, featuring items like bread for the dead, sugar skulls, photographs, the favorite drinks of the deceased, and flowers symbolizing the cycle of life and death. Mixquic, whose name originates from Nahuatl meaning “in the mesquite,” is a traditional town located in the Tláhuac municipality, southeast of Mexico City. Its history dates back to pre-Hispanic times, and its cultural richness is especially evident on November 1 and 2, when its streets, homes, and particularly its cemetery, become a vibrant stage filled with color, aroma, and mysticism.

What sets Mixquic apart is its unique blend of solemnity and festivity. It is not merely a parade or a tourist attraction; it is a community that honors its deceased with altars, cempasúchil flowers, candles, copal, music, cuisine, and rituals passed down through generations.
