Memories in Mexico ~Day of the dead in Michoacan













These are the photos of graves at night in Island of Janitzio.

Day of the Dead in Janitzio




These are the photos in Morelia. The color they use for the decoration is so great. There are big difference of the concept for dead people between Mexican and Japanese.We have similar event called "obon" The Mexican way to welcome the dead people is to have more fun. Yes , if the dead people saw those decopration, they must be enjoyble. I can see.

The pictures that you took are so amazing! I have never seen anything like it before! When I lived in San Diego, the Old Town area of San Diego had a Day of the Dead festival, but it was not nearly as elaborate! How fantastic!!
