Candied Skulls
🌺 🌺 How to Experience It Like a Local Ofrendas (Altars): Seek out neighborhood displays in Plaza de la Constitución or Mixquic, where families arrange photos, pan de muerto (sweet bread), and tequila for their ancestors. Candied Skulls & Pulque: Sample calaveras de azúcar (edible skulls) and sip pre-Hispanic pulque (fermented agave drink) from street vendors. Midnight Magic: Visit Panteón Dolores cemetery at night—lit by candles and song, it’s where grief and joy entwine. “In Mexico, death is the ultimate fiesta—a reminder to live fiercely.” 💀🎺 Pro Tip: Book a Cempasúchil Workshop to craft your own marigold altar, or join a mask-painting class pre-parade. The city’s energy is contagious—don’t be surprised if you find yourself dancing alongside skeletons!
