Mexican Official Holiday celebrating the birthday of Benito Juarez. Considered by some to be the Mexican Abraham Lincoln, this full-blooded Oaxacan Indian served as president of Mexico during the tumultuous War of the Reform and the following French Intervention. One of the most beloved figures in Mexico history, his image is visible in paintings and sculptures throughout the country.
