Atlixco is a small city about 40 min outside of Puebla, and every Septermber (the 4 Sundays) they host a dance festival called Huey Atlixcayotl, that features traditional dances from the 11 regions of Puebla, and one invited state. All this takes place in an open-air apmitheater that is perched on top of a hill overlooking town. So here are some pictures of the dances and the costumes from Sunday.
These are the voladores that are known in part of the Sierra Norte of Puebla and partes of Veracruz (areas where the Totonaca indiginous group is). I already posted picts from the Papantla, Veracruz trip, but this time I had the big lense so here are a couple more picts, but closer up.
