Mexicans gathered within the capital’s Zocalo sq. on Friday evening forward of Saturday’s Independence Day celebrations, which have been kicked off by “El Grito” – the normal cry of independence by President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
It’s a commemoration of the day in September 1810 when a Catholic priest, Miguel Hidalgo y Costillo, generally known as Father Hidalgo made the primary name for independence from Spain.
In Zinacantan, southern Mexico, Indigenous individuals have a good time Independence Day by inserting a picture of Hidalgo on an altar, lighting candles and adorning it with floral preparations
