Day of the Dead "festive" in the cemetery of La Paz
Day of the Dead "festive" in the cemetery of La Paz
month of November, the month of death, is also the month most ornate in the cemetery, normal, half the city pays tribute to his ancestors!
Sounds not on my photos, but there were people !!!!! It's just disrespectful, especially on Sundays in November, where all families get together to go to cemeteries with offerings, to photography to reflect the spot!
As in most Latin American countries, the dead are first buried or placed in a crypt, then exhumed and burned ten years later. 
and some professional mourners who accompany the funerals.
Very active, the district Cementerio.
Here, we clean the vessels, we made the bouquets, it fills with water, and exchange. The sacked (or sink outside) is present in almost all buildings in Latin America. Houses, shops, buildings, public places ....
Does someone would go through it?
While up on the Altiplano, the plateau in the heights of the Andes, the city of El Alto majority Aymara. 
is noted among all the offerings left in the glass cases, both "inevitable": coca-cola and coca leaf. Many also patties or pan dulce ..... hummm, yes but even the blessed memory of the dead with coca-cola ....
sign that if they had the means, the Andean peoples would also like to market such a beverage. Maybe not in the background, but why do they use this drink "American" in their rituals?? Full of
questions .....
