MORELIA, MEXICO - NOVEMBER 03: Mexican cut paper flags are hung over the altar of the dead, a religious site honoring the deceased, during the Day of the Dead celebration on November 03, 2014 in Morelia, Mexico. Day of the Dead is a syncretic religious holiday, celebrated throughout Mexico, combining the death venaration rituals of the ancient Aztec culture with the Catholic practice. Based on the belief that the souls of the departed may come back to this world on that day, people gather on the gravesites praying, drinking and playing music, to joyfully remember friends or family members who have died and to support their souls on the spiritual journey.
