When we travel, we certainly want to bring home something from those distant countries that we visit. It can be souvenirs, national paraphernalia and even food. And in order not to miss the choice of this kind of purchase, we will now consider a specific case and talk about what is brought from Mexico.

Unfortunately, not every citizen of Russia has the opportunity to get to this beautiful hot country. In principle, the rest there is quite affordable - and decent prices in restaurants, and housing is inexpensive, but the flight will cost a pretty penny. But if you still managed to get to this summer paradise, then we recommend that you briefly familiarize yourself with its traditions and choose souvenirs that will always remind you of this unforgettable vacation.

So, what is most often brought from Mexico: food, drinks or jewelry? The answer is simple: both, and another, and the third. Everything in this country is fundamentally different from the usual for us, so any traveler will be pleased to keep such things. HowAs a rule, all things are exhibited in Mexico in the markets - from clothing to jewelry. And the main motto of local markets is bargaining. Therefore, most often people who bring beautiful things from Mexico bargain for them, because the initial price is always unreasonably high.

The main attribute of this hot country is the national costume - a sombrero hat and a bright poncho. In local markets, a headdress can be bought for 150 pesos, and a poncho will cost a little more - from 200 to 250 pesos. Good things can be purchased from the Indians who trade here. They sell sundresses, embroidered shirts, wide trousers and dance dresses. Things that are brought from Mexico can be worn to work or just walked around the city in them. They are of good quality and made of natural materials.

Of course, in a country that is washed by the Caribbean Sea, where the culture of Spain is tightly intertwined with the traditions of the red-skinned peoples, there are a lot of varieties of jewelry, talismans and magical paraphernalia. Tourists buy up silver earrings and medallions at once, buy bracelets made of natural stones and rings inlaid with turquoise, agate, jasper and other dark stones. Many people buy such things in order to present them as gifts from Mexico to relatives and friends.

Continuing the theme of jewelry, you can't miss the beaded crafts made in the Huichol style. A similar weaving technique was popular here in pre-Columbian times. Today, based onAztec ornaments and modern technologies that allow the production of beads and glass beads, stunning earrings, bracelets and necklaces are woven. Of course, they are not precious, but unique.

A special topic right now is shoes in Mexico. This is more about men's fashion, which in recent years has simply shocked the whole world with its outrageousness. All new collections are full of lacquered and simply shiny boots with elongated pointed toes, bent up. In this case, the height of the boot can be standard, like an ordinary men's shoe, or it can reach the knee. Most often, such a product is bought by tourists as an attribute and can only be used when going to a theme party.

Of course, you can't leave Mexico without buying some tequila for the trip. Indeed, in this country it is available in perfect quality and with proper exposure.
