On the occasion of the celebration of Day of the Dead, the Puerto Vallarta’s Malecón is home to a monumental catrina, whose height is 23 meters.

The designer of this catrina was Alondra Muca, a Vallarta young artist who led a work team that was involved for more than a year in the preparations of this enormous structure, which is made of metal and a fiberglass skeleton.

According to Muca, this catrina has details alluding to both the city and the Mexican Pacific.

Located next to El Faro, this monumental work brings a new enhancement to our city, making it a new attraction.

Photographer Víctor Lara shares this series of photographs where you can appreciate some aspects of this impressive work that shows fine touches of art and great creativity.

“Without doubt, Vallarta Lifestyles is the best positioned Magazine in the region. Its solid presence keeps a strong and always fresh vision about the destination, as well as activities. Besides, I consider it a great intellectual contribution for the well written articles that are in each issue.”

"Since we started the company we have advertised in Vallarta Lifestyles, a publication that is considered ‘Puerto Vallarta’s Magazine’ by the quality of its images, content and staff, unique characteristics that encouraged us to say: ‘We have to be in Vallarta Lifestyles’. We know that this magazine is a reference for the target market that we are looking for and we know that being there gives us prestige.”

“Vallarta Lifestyles, from its inception has been a quality reference. In some way, it has managed to consolidate the destination because all our restaurants where there and we communicate as an exchange platform. The benefit, besides advertisement and recommendation, is that this publication is a solid copy of Puerto Vallarta’s evolution. If you pick up an old issue, immediately you’ll recall precious memories.”
