Santa Monica, Tenango de Doria, Hidalgo is the most traditional town in the municipality. There are hundreds of embroidery patterns and designs use on the blouses. The traditional blouse is still in use; however the quechquemitl (cape) is limited. Bob Freund 10/27/2006

These are the Santa Monica blouses in the collection. There are also some pictures from the town festival in 2004. While I attended the festival the rear window of my car was broken.
