Cinco de Mayo is nothing compared to the party Mexico puts on for its actual Independence Day on Sept. 16.
And as the country marks 200 years of freedom from Spain, the festivities -- which begin this weekend and continue through the end of the month - should be more spectacular than ever.
Here are a few ways to join the party:
SATURDAY
Fiestas Patrias / Mexican Independence Day in Old Town : Noon to 6 p.m. Old Town State Historic Park, San Diego Avenue and Twiggs Street, Old Town. Free; (619) 220-5422 or oldtownsandiego.org. Get in the spirit with colorful displays of dancing, storytelling and music from early San Diego. The celebration includes traditional children's games like "cascarones," as well as corn husk doll making and relay races.
