If you ever find yourself in Egypt with a thirst for ancient mystery, the Great Pyramids of Giza should be your first stop. Towering above the golden sands like cosmic beacons, these stone giants have whispered to the curious for over 4,500 years. Whether you're a history nerd, a conspiracy junkie, or just someone looking for the ultimate travel selfie, the pyramids have a way of making you feel impossibly small and totally amazed.

As the sun sets on November 2nd in the quiet borough of San Andrés Mixquic, the local cemetery begins to glow. Hundreds of candles flicker to life. Marigold petals form glowing pathways. The air is thick with the scent of copal incense and tamales. But this is no ordinary cemetery visit — this is a sleepover with the dead.
