墨西哥亡灵节：一场关于记忆的庆典

In early November, Mexican families build colorful altars called ofrendas to welcome the spirits of loved ones.
These altars hold marigold flowers, sugar skulls, photographs, favorite foods, and candles that guide souls home.
Unlike somber Western funerals, this holiday blends joy, music, storytelling, and humor to honor life and death alike.
Children dress as skeletons and parade through streets while adults share pan de muerto, a sweet bread shaped like bones.
Families visit cemeteries at night, cleaning graves and staying awake to share meals and memories with the departed.
The belief is that souls return only once a year—so preparation begins weeks in advance with great care and love.
Artists paint calaveras—playful skeleton figures—to remind people that death is part of life’s natural rhythm.
Schools teach students about ancestral roots, encouraging respect for Indigenous traditions blended with Catholic customs.
