There are several nativity scenes in the Vatican, but this one in Paul VI Audience Hall stands out. <\/p>\n
\tIt comes from Queretaro, Mexico. A delegation came from that city to the Vatican, and they did not go unnoticed. They have been working a whole year on their costumes and their music.<\/p>\n

\n\t\tBishop of Quer\u00e9taro (Mexico)
\n\t'Artists have come, artisans have come, musicians have come... So it is a good opportunity for people to get to know our state.
\nIt is all very detailed, and it all has a meaning. The feathers, for example. We don't kill a bird to take them. We wait for them to shed them. Some are painted, some are natural and we prepare them, and we need two ours to put together our 'copilis.\u00e2?\u009d They are called 'copilis.\u00e2?\u009d<\/p>\n
The Quer\u00e9taro nativity scene, the costumes, and the instruments have a special flavor: that of the Mexican and Latin American craftmanship. It is a craftmanship that shows the patience and toil of the countryfolk.

\nThe costumes have been sewn and tinted by hand. Making a shield, for example, has taken them a whole week. <\/p>\n
\t'This places gives us the chills, the chills... hence the drums. They signify the beat of our hearts, which makes us show and give our heart on each note'.

\n\t'Rome is a special place, one of the birthplaces of world culture. For us it is an honor ot be here at Via della Conciliazione showing these pictures that show the cultural wealth of our state.\u00e2?\u009d<\/p>\n
The Nativity scene, the Quer\u00e9taro pictures and other local craftmanship will be displayed in the Vatican until February 2017.
