Description
People make their way home after the Qoyllur Riti (which means Snow Star in the Quechua language) festival, which takes place in the high Andes in Peru's Cusco region. During the event thousands of people make a pilgrimage to the Sanctuary of the Lord of Qoyllur Riti, a church located in a valley at 4700m / approx 15,500ft at the foot of the sacred Sinak'ara mountain. The peaks in the background are in the northern part of the Mt Ausangate massif (Ausangate is the highest peak in the Cusco Region).
