Okay, in this post I will talk about Mexico, because Mexico is known as a country that is rich in cultural traditions.

Starting from dance, music and of course the culinary delights.

Yaappp! Mexico, this country with Latin nuances could be the country of your choice for holiday.

Not only because it has a number of interesting tourist locations, but also because of its cultural diversity. This Jalisco festival for example.

Cultural festival in the city of Jalisco, which is held once a year featuring the Mexican hat dance. In Europe, this dance is also known as flamenco dance.

In Mexican hat dance performances, the male dancers wear a special costume called a charel, complete with a sombrero, a typical Mexican folk hat.

Sombrero there are 2 types. Those made from straw are usually used by farmers. While sombreros are made from velvet or leather, used by rich Histani people.

The female dancer's costume is also no less unique, called Eljarabe tapatio, one of the traditional clothes. Traditional clothing of the people of Mexico is not only that. For everyday life, usually they wear hwipil, which is made of wool. The shel is called kwikmakel and the shawl is called rebozo. Not only in the city of Jalisco, in the city of Ciapa, Southern Mexico, there is a tradition of dancing using a wooden mask called Araciko.

In this festival, which is held every month January, each participant wears a colorful costume that he makes himself. It is estimated that 4 thousand people take to the streets every year. Not only do they dance, some of them also play musical instruments in the form of maracas. The Paracikos dance has been named a cultural heritage by the world body Unesco in 2010. This tradition has been going on since 1906. Set in the local legend of a Spanish traveler.

For music, the country of origin of this telenovela has Mariachi Chula Vista, a music group consisting of 5 people playing trumpet, violin, classical guitar and so on. At weddings, Mariachi is usually a mandatory performance.

Discussing Mexico, cannot be separated from its culinary delights, especially its snacks. Most traditional Mexican foods, served with tortillas. Thin bread made from corn or wheat flour. Call it tacos.

Tortillas filled with meat, lettuce and cheese. There are also nacos, crispy tortillas smothered in cheese sauce or salsa sauce.

A combination of sour, spicy, savory and crunchy flavors. Not surprisingly, the deliciousness of nacos is said to dominate most of the tastiest foods on the American continent.

Well, earlier I discussed culture, food. There is one thing that is missing, you know, namely telenovelas.

What is that?
Later, we'll discuss it in my next post.

Greetings always compact.
