COUNTRY INTRODUCTION

Mexico
Culture
Mexican culture, with its millennia-old
origins, is very rich and diverse and
has been influenced by various
peoples:
Pre-Columbian civilizations such as
the Aztecs and Mayans;
The Spaniards;
North American culture.
Festivals
An important Mexican tradition is
religious festivals, such as the Day of
the Virgin of Guadalupe on December
12th, when thousands of people gather
to worship the image of the saint at
the Basilica of Guadalupe in northern
Mexico City. Another important
celebration in the country is the Dia
de Los Muertos.
M us ic and
Da nc e
Mariachi, a popular music style that
originated in Jalisco, is perhaps the
most internationally recognized. With
its lively rhythms and passionate
lyrics, mariachi bands are a hallmark
of Mexican celebrations and
gatherings. Other traditional music
and dance styles include norteño,
banda, and ranchera.
M us ic and
Da nc e
Folkloric dances, such as the Jarabe
Tapatío, La Danza del Venado, and La
Guelaguetza, showcase the diverse
cultural heritage of Mexico and tell
stories of its history, legends, and
people. These dances are performed
in colorful costumes, often
accompanied by live music, and are
celebrated at festivals and events
throughout the year.
