Dia de los Muertos, or the Day of the Dead, is a vibrant Mexican celebration honoring the departed. Lasting from October 31st to November 2nd, families create colorful ofrendas (altars) in their homes and visit cemeteries, adorning graves with marigold flowers, sugar skulls, and candles. La Catrina, a famous skeletal figure, is an iconic symbol. It's a joyful tribute to loved ones who have passed away, with a belief that the spirits of the deceased return to the world of the living during this time. Dia de los Muertos highlights the interconnectedness of life and death and fosters a deep sense of cultural identity.
