This is Brussels?! 😳 These spooky skeletons were part of the spectacular Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebration in Brussels, bringing Mexican culture and traditions to the streets of Belgium! And they aren't meant to scare anyone! In Mexican tradition, they are playful symbols of death, reminding us to celebrate life rather than fear its end. A colourful celebration of remembrance, culture and joy! 🌺🎭 #diademuertos #dayofthedead #brussels #mexicanculture #belgium #bruxelles #belgique #deeastudio #marolles #travel #parade #festival #discoverbelgium
Catrina is a famous Mexican skeleton figure, originally created as a satirical illustration of wealthy women who imitated European fashion. Over time, she became an iconic symbol of Día de Muertos, representing the idea that death comes for everyone, regardless of social status. 💀🇲🇽
