On a magical afternoon, the Lord of earthquakes left yesterday to carry out his traditional tour and give a blessing to all the people of Cusco,
The procession of the Lord of the Earthquakes gathers tens of thousands of faithful each year during Holy Week, a religious celebration that involves the entire population of Cusco.
Being part of the procession and the blessing of the Taytacha of Temblors is an exciting experience where faith and devotion, the deepest feelings of the faithful, are visible.
Among his thousands of followers, the Lord opened the way, listening to the sound of the bells, especially the deep sound of María Angola’s bell when he begins his journey.
In what follows, we present the images of what was experienced during the procession of the Lord of Temblors.
