Las Vegas, Nevada -- El Cid Timeshare is a leader in the world of vacation ownership.  Based in Mexico, the club always enjoys sharing information about the rich culture and activities of Mexico, where on September 16, Mexicans from all around the country came together to celebrate the start of the Mexican War of Independence from Spain.  This festive holiday, also known as "El Grito" named after the "Grito de Dolores" that was shouted from the small town of Dolores, is held very dear in the hearts of every Mexican citizen.

On September 16, many citizens took part in the plethora of performances, parades, rodeos, and feasts that took place all over the country. The holiday of Mexican Independence Day is even more significant than that of Cinco de Mayo. In town squares and meeting places around the country, there were decorations and fiestas that lasted all night.

El Cid Timeshare recommends planning a vacation to spend Mexican Independence Day in Mexico next year. On September 15, the night before "El Grito," Mexico City is decorated with red, white, and green ornaments and a huge feast is held. When the clock strikes eleven, everyone is silent. On the last strike of the clock on the eleventh hour, the president of Mexico emerges on the presidential palace balcony and rings the historic liberty bell and shouts the "Grito de Dolores." At the end of this ceremony, the entire crowd chants, "¡Viva México!" It is a truly moving and exciting experience to be a part of.  This year due to certain circumstances the president was not able to partake but the fiesta was still held.

Mexican Independence Day is celebrated around the country, and politicians and mayors repeat this ritual across Mexico. Food is a very important part of Mexican culture, and the month of September is also known as the "Mes de la Patria," or heritage month. During September, visitors to Mexico can enjoy many traditional Mexican dishes including Mole Poblano, Chiles en Nogada and so many more.

El Cid Timeshare invites guests from all over the world to come and experience the magic and festivities that accompany "El Grito" each year. Mariachi music, parades, great food, extravagant costumes and more are just some of the many attractions and activities to enjoy during Mexican Independence Day.
