When Day of the Dead arrives, the celebration takes on a different tone. In the morning, people go out in costumes along the main streets, while a mock cemetery across from Parroquia de Santiago Apóstol church provides the right atmosphere for the shared spirit. In the evening, the Festival de la Luz y la Vida (Light and Life Festival) begins. It’s a spectacle not to be missed: over a thousand torches are handed out in offering, as a slow pilgrimage makes its way from the church along Calzada de las Almas, to Lake Chignahuapan and the theater next to it.
