During Día de los Muertos in Mexico, the theme of remembrance is emphasized through vibrant altars, or ofrendas, that honor deceased loved ones. These altars are decorated with photos, favorite foods, and personal items of the departed, creating a personalized tribute. The use of marigolds, candles, and sugar skulls signifies life and death, while families gather to celebrate memories, fostering a sense of connection across generations. This cultural tradition blends indigenous beliefs with Catholicism, reinforcing the importance of family and heritage.
