Silent Procession in Oaxaca City. This Silent Procession is held during Semana Santa. Get there early as there are huge crowds, it is a very special cultural experience that I would recommend.
Keep in mind that you may be waiting a few hours so bring something to occupy your child. Luckily we met new friends and they helped pass the time. Gracias, otherwise we would not have been able to survive the long wait without a meltdown.
Personally I would suggest this experience is more suited to older children and that you try to give them as much background as possible to what they will see...as in all performances or cultural experiences, it helps to know what it is you are about to experience.
Observing this and other local customs with your children teaches your child to keep and open mind about different cultures and customs, which helps builds bridges.
This is the journey of a mother and her child who go on Adventurez In Mexico. They explore, learn and discover all they can about Mexican culture. #AdventurezInMexico @AdventurezinMexicoFB · Education website
