◻ ◻ ◻ In the center of Mexico City, on the occasion of the Day of the Dead, a 33.4 meter high Catrina, a female figure in the form of a skeleton, was installed, which broke the Guinness record. 140 artists and technicians worked on it. Katrina was dressed in a purple dress more than 27 meters long and was placed in the center of an operanda, a traditional altar in memory of the dead. About 70 thousand marigolds were planted around. Their color and smell are believed to help spirits find their way home. The facility, about the height of an 11-story building, was placed in the Zocalo square. It surpassed the previous record set in 2023 in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where a figure of 28.15m was erected. If the video does not load for you, you can watch it in "Max".
