Huaquechula, Puebla Giant Ofrendas

A Nahua village in Puebla state where families who have recently lost members in the previous year build multi-room, multi-level room-sized ofrenda installations that visitors walk through as an immersive commemoration environment. The scale and elaborateness of the Huaquechula ofrendas — some filling an entire room with photos, food, favorite possessions, and flowers — has made the village the most extreme expression of the tradition accessible to visitors.
