Monumental Alebrijes Festival In Mexico City
Dozens of people participate in the Monumental Alebrijes Festival in Mexico City, Mexico, where more than 170 alebrijes parade along Paseo de la Reforma. According to the National Institute of Anthropology and History, these figures, which combine physiognomic elements of various animals, real or imaginary, are invented during the first half of the 20th century in Mexico City and become part of folk art.
