The Day of The Dead






The Day of The Dead


Many countries have “dead festival”. Its often seems likes sad and dark, but “The Day of The Dead” of Mexico is full of cheerfully and enjoyable festival because of Latin country. They make alter called “Oflenda” in their houses and near the store. It is decollated by a lot of flowers of marigold and skulls. Why skulls and marigold? Because skulls is symbol of dead, so they are in use pictures and wall painting, and marigold said that it smells like dead person. Mexican skulls are charming, and marigold is blight orange and beautiful, so we have never mind “The Day of The Dead” is sorrowful festival. Moreover there are snacks, bread and object of skulls motif. In this way Mexican enjoys the festival very much and at the same time they grow themselves thinking for death.
