During the month of February the streets in Mexico find themselves full of happy and colorful parades with people in costumes dancing and singing along the music. The reason? It is not completely clear, although there is a close relationship with Christianism, as it happens exactly 40 day before Holly Week and is something as “saying goodbye to pagan life” in order to embark into the Holly Week traditions with all the respect and commitment it involves.<\/p>\n
Carnival is the most celebrated pagan fiesta all over the world, with a few exceptions in America and Asia. There are some variations in the celebrations as every place gives it its own characteristic seal.<\/p>\n
For example, in Basel, Switzerland, it begins with a general blackout at 4 o’clock in the morning. In Rio de Janeiro, besides parading along the streets, people gather at El Sambodromo, an enormous venue created specifically for this kind of events.<\/p>\n
In Mexico carnivals are a mixture of indigenous and European traditions, but at the end of the day everything reflects the Mexican people’s joy and ingenuity.<\/p>\n
These are some of the most popular carnivals in Mexico:<\/p>\n
