About Mexicans

With its ancient history of Aztec civilization and ancient temples which still stand to this day, Mexico is still a popular south of the border vacation spot. Throughout the centuries, Mexico has yielded many famous activists, authors, artists such as Frida Kahlo, actors like Salma Hayek and Anthony Quinn.

Dressing as a Mexican

Put on a traditional poncho and sombrero for a fun Mexican feel. Celebrate Cinco de Mayo, the Mexican Day of Independence with a Mexican-themed party complete with authentic Mexican recipes and even a {piñata} filled with candy. In addition to sombreros and serapes, guests can also dress as a Mexican Luchador -- a high-flying Mexican wrestler or even as a historical Aztec warrior, king, or princess with a feathered headdress and beaded costume.
