At 10 AM Spend the morning immersed in history and culture and at 4 PM the afternoon learning how a culture views death greatly impacts how life is lead. For example, if life begins at death why wear a seat belt? What’s the worst that can happen? You simply go back to God that much sooner.
Explore why we are the center of the cult of the cross and witchcraft, Day of the Dead practices featured in Coco, the art of the cemetery and what happens when your tomb taxes are left unpaid.
