Named the Day of the Race, the festival actually commemorates Columbus's discovery of the New World. If you're interested in the history of Mexico, you might witness many of public debates on Mexican roots, whether they are related to the old or new world. If you're more into celebration itself, Mexican cities like Puerto Vallarta host numerous processions and colourful festivities, so you will definitely find something interesting in the streets to occupy yourself with on October, 12.
