carlaerosie:

small cultural & Colombia/Latin related details from Encanto 🇨🇴 (part 2)

Julieta using her fingers instead of a spatula to flip the food (also the arepas 🫓)

men in the village playing Tejo – national sport of Colombia (also the Colombian flag on the boards)

the small windmills in Mirabel’s basket are of the color of Colombian flag

so are the umbrellas

las palenqueras – dresses that Dolores wears, typical for Afro-Colombian women especially in Cartagena

silletas – the things that those men carry on their back (no idea how to explain it in English)

Puente de Boyacá (the Bridge of Boyacá located at the Bogotá-Tunja highway)

note: I understand that some of those things may be also common in other cultures but please avoid commenting things like this. Now we are focusing on the Colombian aspects of this movie
