Dia de Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is a Mexican tradition celebrated on November 1 and 2, honoring deceased loved ones. Unlike the solemn All Saints' and All Souls' Days in other Catholic nations, Mexicans celebrate with joy, believing spirits reunite with families. Celebrations include visiting graves, offering food, and decorating with marigolds. Skulls, especially sugar skulls, are central symbols. The tradition extends to other countries, including the US. Participants dress in costumes, join parades, and enjoy festive activities, emphasizing remembrance and celebration of life.
