Mexico

…

…Mexico. Other important days include Cinco de Mayo (May 5th), Constitution Day (February 5th), and Mexican Independence Day (September 16th). These are all days of great national pride among Mexicans. The Day of the Dead is another major holiday and can be compared to Halloween in the United States. Families gather to honor their dead ancestors by cleaning up graveyards and adorning graves with flowers. There are parties and, of course, a lot of food!
