TOP THINGS TO BUY IN ZOZOCOLCO DE HIDALGO
In this Magical Town you can find masks, pita works and beautiful cedar furniture.
Wonderful colorful candles and complex ornaments are also made here, which are often used in religious festivals in the region.
You will also find beautifully embroidered garments, some of them are part of the typical Totonac clothing such as the quesquémetl (two pieces of rectangular cloth sewn together, and most often worn off the shoulders, covering the upper body). Textile traditions have been maintained since pre-Hispanic times, but due to the beauty of their creations they have been preserved to our time.
Another beautiful creation from this area are the scaled wax candles (a technique of working with wax made with very diverse thin templates put among or linked covering the candle). The flowers used to adorn the candles are made from molds and the decoration is complemented with colored paper, in such a way that they end up in unique and very attractive pieces.
