There are a few days left till day of the dead (All saints’ day) and in México this is a very important date. There are many traditions around this holiday. The most important is presenting an offering to your dead relatives. This offering consists on setting up an altar to the dead relative. You could start with a picture, and some of the food they liked when they were alive. Also some fruits and drinks, incense, candles and last but not least Cempazuchitl flowers.
These flowers will be laid on the floor from the entrance of the house to the offering so that the dead relative can find it’s way through the house.
These yellow fields are found in Cuernavaca and fill the air with a lovely smell.
Don’t forget to buy your flowers and get your offering ready.
Happy all saints’ day!

Hola qué tal. Encontré tu sitio mientras buscaba fotografías de la flor de cempazúchitl y salió ésta que me gusta mucho.
¿Podría ocupar tu imagen para el diseño de un cartel? Es para un evento a realizar en la escuela donde trabajo (nada de lucro), es un bachillerato en Oaxaca.
Gracias, espero tu respuesta.
