A Day of the Dead Tradition<\/h2>\n

Altares de la comunidad Maya, de Tlaxcala, Grupo Xcaret and guests <\/h2>\n

As every year, Dia de Muertos is a celebration to celebrate life and death and there is no Mexican who does not celebrate or remember a loved one and something very characteristic of this tradition are the altars.<\/p>\n

In this tradition, people are used to placing altars in which they put offerings to the loved ones who are no longer with us, personally the most beautiful thing about this tradition is to see people and families gathered at the altars while waiting for the visit of their loved ones. As the curious dates are offerings, they are usually placed from October 31 or including a few days before, to be ready for the dawn of November 1 to receive the dead and be able to see them off on November 2. <\/p>\n

Without exception, the Xcaret park is also celebrated with parades, shows, altars and live music to commemorate these important dates. This year the state invited to Tlaxcala, state recognized for being the state of corn. Where the day of the dead is celebrated in a slightly different way. <\/p>\n

In the Festival of Traditions of Life and Death organized by Xcaret para m\u00ed ya it is a tradition to visit the exhibition of altars and admire the creativity of the people who make such beautiful altars. If you didn’t see the opportunity to go to the festival or missed one, don’t worry I’ve given you a brief summary of this year’s altars. <\/p>\n

Tlaxcaltec altars<\/strong><\/h3>\n

As life has said in this year in Tlaxcala, we have made 7 different highs to represent a little of its cultural diversity and its traditions. As in most states, Tlaxcaltecas are used to visiting their dead in the pantheon, but also to make their altars. <\/p>\n

When it is a first offering, that is to say that the person failed between October of last year and September, a special offering is made. Unlike the people who died in previous years, in this offering they place larger quantities of their favorite food, their new clothes, also distant relatives and friends bring more candles for their altar.<\/p>\n

Another tradition, that on the 2nd of November, to the sound of the bells, they are used to say goodbye to the deceased who will visit them. All the relatives gather at the altar of the deceased and together with the sahumerios and the chiquihuite of the ofrenda (bags with food and fruits) walk towards the door of their door, symbolizing the farewell and wishing a good trip to the world of the dead . <\/p>\n

On the altars was a representation of a Tlalmanalli Offering, and altars representative of the municipalities of Atltzayanca, Ixtacuixtla, Santa Cruz Tlaxcala, Contla de Juan de Cuamatzi, San Pablo del Monte and Zacatelco.<\/p>\n

Altars of the Maya Community<\/strong><\/h3>\n

These altars are characterized by the use of the guano plant, so the same technology is used in a house. Also unlike other altars, these use a type of Yucatecan j\u00edcaras (made of natural products) to place the offerings for their questions. <\/p>\n

As a tradition, it is customary to say a prayer to their questions and at the end of the days of this celebration, the panels or fruits of the altars are given as gifts to those who come to visit these altars. <\/p>\n

The invited areas this year were: Chanchen 1 and 2, Kantem\u00f3, Xpichil, Kokchen, Xhazil Surv and Uh May. <\/p>\n
