Qoyllur Rit'i Pilgrimage

One of the largest indigenous pilgrimages in the Americas, thousands of dancers and pilgrims climb to the Sinakara Sanctuary at over 4,600 meters to honor the Lord of Qoyllur Rit'i, blending Catholic devotion with Andean mountain-spirit worship. The date follows the Corpus Christi religious calendar and varies each year between late May and early June. (Date shown is estimated from the event's typical annual timing — confirm with the organizer closer to the date.)
