Día de los Muertos

Although celebrated in many cultures, Día de los Muertos, is an important Mexican holiday honoring deceased loved ones.

On All Soul’s Day, adults who have died are honored through altars displaying their favorite foods, drinks, personal belongings, flowers, candles, and incense. The rituals surrounding Día de los Muertos have been practiced by Mexican Natives for thousands of years.
