Mexico is hosting a color sculpture parade to honor folk arts and handicraft. The giant figures called ‘Alebrije’ take over the main boulevard as in the past during the parade.

Their bright colors and unusual shapes are originated in the mythical monsters on all continents, including Africa and Asia. Every year, thousands of people come out, mostly children and their parents, to line the 5.5-kilometer parade route.

The amazing figures will be on display for a few weeks and at the end cash prizes will go to the top three most creative sculptures.
