This festivity takes place the 1º of November, time to visit the cemetery and to drive out the bad spirits through fliying kite´s. Then it´s time to eat, drink and dance. I found Sumpango (even when is less colorful) more authentic than Santiago, less tourists and more local people.

Most of the kite´s designs are religious (Catholic), indian (Kakchikel) or politicals matters.

There are different sizes and designs of kite´s. Made of paper these colorful kite´s are huge, usually takes up more than two months to design and create them.
