SOME SOCIAL ASPECTS FROM VERACRUZ...

Carnival is a big party consisting of 6 colorful parades, which take place along the promenade where crowds of people dance with joy in groups called "Comparsas". Brightly colored, elaborately decorated floats, created by the "Jarochos" (the name for people from the port of Veracruz), pass by with people in fantastic costumes playing music, singing and dancing.
