The carnival is a celebration
that takes place before Easter, it combines elements such as costumes, charros,
groups that sing, parades and street parties.
Our experience in the carnival was very pleasant since we were part of a new
culture and tradition. To begin with, we were invited to the comparsa
"Atlapulco", from the town of San Agustín Atlapulco, Chimalhuacán.
This town is the only one that has the clothes for the charras of dresses of
fifteen years, in this celebration dance of Virginia was made as the opening of
the event, the charros danced with the charras, the music was an orchestra. The
community went out to dance and accompanied the comparsa in their journey
through the streets, to be flattered and admired for their clothing, and their
dances that could be Virginias or Cuadrillas.
In this comparsa they moved from place to place, because they were different
houses in which they invited them to dance, each house offered drink, oranges
and soft drinks for the charros, charras, and people who accompanied the
comparsa. At lunchtime, the people of the house fed about 200 people, since not
only are the charros and charras fed, but also all the people who accompany the
comparsa and family are invited.
