Chiapas is one of the areas with the greatest biodiversity in the world. The lush green fields, forests and jungles, the unique flora and fauna, rare species and much more, are some of the attractions of this beautiful state. Travelling from one destination to another is a real adventure. The Chiapas territory is a reminiscent of the Rocky Mountains in some locations and the Amazon Rainforest in others. In Chiapas many ethnic groups have kept their traditions, languages and folklore alive. The colorful costumes of the ethnic groups in Chiapas are as varied as the countryside that surrounds them. A large number of their mythological figures are woven into their clothes. The traditions are shown in the famous handcrafts, the festivities and the local gastronomy. Textile Art of Chiapas

DISCOVER CHIAPAS Tapachula

Tapachula is also known as “La Perla del Soconusco” (The Pearl of Soconusco), it is a modern city with beautiful buildings built in a classic style. Located just next to the border with Guatemala, almost at the foot of the volcano Tacaná. It does have an interesting combination of urban sophistication and tropical tempo.

Parachicos TRADITION The Fiesta Grande de Enero (Great January Feast) takes place from 4 to 23 January every year in Chiapa de Corzo, to honor local patron saints Our Lord of Esquipulas, Anthony the Great and Saint Sebastian. The Fiesta Grande de Enero is a celebration, which joins a number of events that includes music, dance, crafts, food, religious ceremonies and other entertainment. But the main attraction is the Parachicos dancers. The Parachicos dress in a mask carved of wood and decorated with lacquer to mimic a Spanish face; a helmet or wig made of ixtle to mimic blonde hair; and a Saltillo style sarape. The dancers carry a type of maraca made of metal called chinchin to make noise along with the taping of their boot heels. The dancers go along the streets dancing with a drum and a “carrizo” also called reed whistle. These processions visit the various churches on their path, which are decorated with branches, on

20

which are hung breads, sweets, fruits and plastic decorations. Their dances begin in the morning and end at night. There are so many parachicos dancers (more than 50 percent of the population go out for dancing), which require guidance, a “patron”. The “patron” of the dances and processions has a mask with a severe expression, a guitar and a whip, and the musicians play flutes, drums and whistles. During the dance, the “patron” chant prayers and the Parachicos respond with cheers. The dance is transmitted and taught during the festivity, children who participate in the festival, mimic the movements of adults, also the art of making masks is transmitted from generation to generation. The festival has been included in UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists on 2010, listed as "Parachicos in the traditional January feast of Chiapa de Corzo.
