Flying south and standing in Mexico City, this land seems to be synonymous with danger to the outside world. There are even many remarks that why the Americans didn’t directly annex this neighbor, just as a backyard. After all, who has no trash can in the yard?

But since you come, let's go. The principle of SC Johnson is to kill the wrong ones rather than let go. The more chaotic the place is, there may be surprises.

From the hotel, just from the appearance of the city, this place is definitely not a decent city. The houses have a sense of disrepair and the traffic is also in a state of chaos and congestion. You can see real guns and ammunition policemen standing on the street, women standing in the street, sling-headed homeless people and humble beggars...

I originally wanted to find a local sister to accompany me, but I found that although the girls here had a good figure, their facial features were too prominent, and they felt a weird feeling.

Not to mention that my skin is a little dark, the problem is that it is very rough, as if the bacon that has been exposed to the wind and sun for several days, I was not interested in it instantly.

Along the Reform Avenue, it is equivalent to Chang'an Street in the capital, which runs north and south, and is 50 kilometers long. The courageous one is that the government is completely closed, specializing in running, riding bicycles, walking children and dogs for people, and even various spys...

If you want to talk about this place, it feels more open than the Netherlands. Every few steps you walk, you can see men and women hugging each other and chewing?

Walking to the Plaza de Constitution, similar to the heart of Mexico City. As expected, we should not be too high. The square is full of vendors selling small commodities, couples in love, and people sitting on the ground to enjoy themselves...

The biggest highlight is the large and heavy national flag with a length of 55 meters, a width of 32 meters, and an area of ​​more than 1,700 square meters. Unfortunately, I didn't catch up, otherwise I really wanted to see how to operate it?

Next to it is a noisy market. I think I haven’t visited the market for a long time and the European ones are not down-to-earth, so I will feel it here.

As soon as I entered the door, the noise made SC Johnson feel familiar. After walking a few steps, I found that this was really a unique market. There were unusual ostrichs with hair and crocodiles with skin on the meat stall.

Sell ​​all kinds of insects I have never seen before, all kinds of colorful flowers eaten by locals, a wide variety of peppers and corn, and there are hundreds of varieties...

Various cactus, logically speaking, this succulent is raised in mini flower pots in China and has not grown up for many years, but it grows passionately and greedy on this magical land.

Some look like huge trees, some look like dense walls, as if all plants have been magnified hundreds or thousands of times. If you didn’t see it with your own eyes, you didn’t know that there was such a possibility.

There are cats everywhere. The cats here are fat, cunning, and the fur is shiny. The eyes are filled with domineering aura of seeing the world. They are not afraid of people. It is not that you teased them, but that they ignore you.

I really can’t help but buy some snacks to try. The biggest feature is spicy! spicy! spicy!

Johnson Johnson was red in his eyes and felt extremely guilty. Why did he not believe in evil when he was a place where he could use peppers, corn and insects as the three major national foods?

Xia Long quickly bought a bottle of soda and almost spit it out after taking a bite. He actually put chili peppers on everything, not even soda?

Crazy!

A few months ago, I watched a Mexican movie online, telling the story of a music-loving boy Mig who accidentally entered the world of the dead on the Day of the Dead, experiencing a series of exciting adventures, and being forced to realize the preciousness of family affection while making choices between dreams and relatives.

The tear-jerking plot and exquisite pictures at that time made Johnson very interested in this country, but he didn't expect...

I heard that November is the Day of the Dead, and it must be celebrated in a large manner. There is a parade in various ways, but unfortunately it has not arrived yet. However, there is a park in the Dead nearby, so it is a wish to go around.

When you enter the door, there is a large orange flower. The movie also uses petals to lay the background. It is the protagonist flower that runs through the entire film, called marigold, also called the Flower of the Day of the Dead. Locals believe that the Day of the Dead is an annual time for reunion with deceased relatives and can spend a good time together. From the cemetery to the road to your own house, the Dead can return to your hometown by following the fragrance of flowers.

There were colorful paper-cuts hanging above my head. When night came, I lit lanterns at the door of my house to guide the dead, lit candles at the cemetery, and the locals who came to pay tribute took quilts and food to sit next to the grave, preparing to guard the whole night, allowing tourists to pass through the grave, and they didn't feel offended when taking photos. When tourists asked occasionally, they would answer very friendlyly.

The park performed a parade, although it was not as large as the Day of the Dead, it was also authentic. The staff were all dressed up as various skeletons. Just as the representative object of Halloween in the West is pumpkin, and the representative object of the Day of the Dead is skeletons, indicating that the return of the Dead is.

Everyone celebrated with a smile and happily, as if death was a festival full of colors. People set up altars for the dead with food and other things, played music in the cemetery, and wrote some skeleton poems to make fun of each other, all from the Indian culture that existed before the Spanish colonial era.

Parents will tell their children about the ins and outs of the Day of the Dead and their significance, and then dress them up to participate in the Day of the Dead parade. They are full of joy, like a carnival. A group of beauties with skeleton makeup smile at the audience on both sides, and the breath of youth comes to their faces.

Whether to die or not is too far away from them, I am happy because I don’t have to go to school and play with my friends, which is similar to our June 1st. The makeup that the girl puts on can be seen is full of playfulness, and her innocent and bright smile makes people sigh at the vivid atmosphere of life.

The eyes, nose, and mouth are the key. The mouth can be transformed into sutures, or a little scary, with a row of pale teeth. Apply two circles to the eyes, paired with your favorite flowers, and apply black on the nose.

I bought a set of unique Mexican skirts, flowers and exaggerated hats in the local market. My love for flowers here, from children to old ladies, always dressing myself up.

There are stalls on the roadside to buy food, and the dead skulls are made of marshmallows, connecting the sweetness of life and the coldness of death. They all have brightly colored smiles and big mouths, and this kind of candy can be seen everywhere.

What's even more peculiar is bread, which has different shapes and different meanings. The human-shaped bread without legs represents a ghost, called Rosket spiral bread, which represents the cycle of life. The bread with decorations in the shape of a thousand-layer cake, O'Haldra, welcomes the return of the dead.

In our culture, death is disappearance, eternal separation. In the culture of many nations, we always try every means to avoid death. There has never been a nation in the world that commemorates death so happily.

Everyone dressed up as colorful skeletons, singing and dancing, foraging, socializing, and wandering around. Johnson didn't understand why they could face death directly?

According to the ancient Indian saying, in addition to the world in which people live, the universe also has the sky above and the sky below. The deceased will enter the sky and enter the infinite cycle of the universe.

As the movie shows, in the Mexican concept, death is not the end of life, but part of the life cycle. Even if a person dies, he still lives in the memory and spirit of the group and enters a new stage of starting point.

I firmly believe that the dead will be resurrected from the underground world on the Day of the Dead and return to the world to meet their relatives. They will welcome their relatives with the joy of the most, enjoy their favorite joys, food, party, drinking, listening to music and dancing together.
