There are cities that remember history. And then there are cities that live it. Old Québec, nestled within the walls of Québec City, is the kind of place where every step echoes with the past, where cannons guard the cliffs and church bells sing over ancient plazas.

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.
