Manage episode 303191588 series 2898021
Independence Day (Día de la Independencia) is a Mexican holiday to celebrate the “cry of independence” on September 16, 1810, which started a revolt against Spanish rule.
Independence Day celebrates the day Miguel Hidalgo is believed to have made the cry of independence (El Grito de la Independencia) in the town of Dolores, in the north-central part of the Mexican state of Guanajuato. Hidalgo was one of the nation’s leaders during the War of Independence in Mexico.
Mexicans celebrate their country’s Independence Day with fireworks, parties (fiestas), food, dance, and music on September 16. Flags, flowers, and decorations in the colors of the Mexican flag – green, white and red – are seen in public areas in cities and towns in Mexico. Whistles and horns are blown and confetti is thrown to celebrate this festive occasion. "Viva Mexico" or "Viva la Independencia” are shouted amidst the crowds on this day.
