“On Monday, September 16, the Embassy of Mexico to the Czech Republic celebrated the 209th Anniversary of the Independence of Mexico with a magnificent event held at the iconic premises of Kino Lucerna, with full attendance of official authorities, including the Vice President of the Senate, Mrs. Miluše Horská, members of the Diplomatic Corps, Mexican community and friends of Mexico.
The occasion started with the fabulous interpretation of the Mexican and Czech Anthems by Mexican soprano Naomi Villegas, followed by the official messages of Ambassador of Mexico, H.E. Leonora Rueda and Vice Minister of the Foreign Ministry Martin Tlapa.
The traditional “Grito” could not be absent and after many “Viva Mexico”, the fiesta continued with the colorful, joyful, vibrant folkloric dances performed by the so called“Grupo Achai” (Brother in yaqui language), whose members, from the State of Sonora, Mexico, presented their talent with the steps of different regions of the country: Veracruz, Jalisco, Chihuahua, Yucatan, Guerrero and Veracruz. During their show, an impressive projection of the tourist attractions of the country was an unbeatable choreography for the presentation”.
