Dia de los Muertos,
1st of November, nothing changes much in the highlands of Guatemala, but once a year in Sumpango giant kites soar from the mountains. A football field on the top of the hill is used as the launching place. Around town kite sellers and tourists gather to see the spectacle.
In Día de los Muertos people believe that their loved ones get closer to earth and the local cementery becomes a place of worship.
