Mexicali, Mexico -- A bright and decorative piñata suspended in a town square in northern Mexico during a street festival. According to tradition, the Piñata began in Mexico in the city of Acolman, where the piñatas were introduced for celebratory purposes and to evoke the ancient Aztec ceremony dedicated to the deity of Huitzilopochtli. The piñatas today are paper or cardboard containers filled with candies and toys which, once suspended in the air, are broken during the celebration Happiness | City | Shiny | History | Social Issues
