A Women's RV Forum run by Women RVer's!

Just thought I'd share some photos from one of the plazas in Mazatlan. There were very few people there so it was easy to get photos. Carnaval has been cancelled in Mazatlan for the first time in 123 years so the city decorated this plaza;











There are more on my blog. It was a great evening.

Thank you for the photos Carol. Looks very festive whether there are many people or not. Did the the event start 123 years ago or was it cancelled back then for some reason.

Gorgeous.

Spectacular scenery ! Thanks for sharing.

The first Mazatlan carnival was 123 years ago and has been celebrated every year since then, until this year.

Carol are those figurines up all the time or moved in for the carnival?
what is the reason for the carnival?
very pretty

Carnaval is Mazatlan's version of Mardi Gras in New Oleans. They are only up until the day before Ash Wednesday.

thanks Carol
