Not only in Mexico are Mexican cemeteries scenic beauty. As we get closer to “el Día de los Muertos”, the Day of the Dead, the decorations will only become more elaborate. We experienced the Día de los Muertos when we spent the winter in Sayulita, MX. We’ll never forget the loud explosions that were set off beginning at 4:00 AM and continuing every hour on the hour until about midnight. This went on for several days in anticipation of el día.
Even here in Texas, all of the graves are decorated beautifully.
This cemetery is near Weslaco, Texas. and apparently each family has a designated section.
The fence is marked with the family names.
