Are you familiar with Cinco de Mayo? It is on the 5th of May and commemorates the victory of the Mexican militia over the French army at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. It is primarily a regional holiday celebrated in the Mexican state capital city of Puebla. But it is also recognized in other parts of Mexico or in US cities with a significant Mexican population.

Or perhaps you are familiar with Mexico's Independence Day celebrated on September 16th. The historic day when Father Hidalgo rang the church bells and shouted to the peasants "Mexicanos, Viva Mexico".

Both of these dates are extremely important in the Mexican culture as you would expect. There are celebrations that range from the most elaborate to the smallest family gathering, all equally important. If you have been considering a vacation to Mexico either of these dates would result in a fascinating trip.

On September 15th they decorate their homes, cars and anything else that can be seen with their flags. They gather outside to celebrate a military parade. If you join them for a taste of their culture and food, you will not be disappointed.

Before traveling be sure to check the new laws that are in effect concerning travel between the US and Mexico. At one time you did not need a passport for this type of travel but so much has changed, to be sure you have the most current information you may want to get in touch with a company that specializes in obtaining travel documents, ensuring you will have everything you need to help Mexico celebrate. Viva Mexico!
