The Andean region is characterized by its deep cultural and folkloric legacy from the Inca and pre-Inca cultures developed throughout the Andes, which are expressed in their festivals, customs and traditions linked mainly to Pachamama or Mother Earth.<\/p>\n

The Andean countries have almost 500 years of Catholic imposition, however the Pachamama or Mother Earth, one of the most revered deities in antiquity, has not lost its validity<\/strong>. Every August 1st, the Andean inhabitants perform an offering ceremony to the Pachamama that represents the earth in the broadest sense of the word, that is, all of nature that provides us with the place and resources we need to live. The Pachamama is our Mother Nature and it is everywhere, however we can find places that the Andean inhabitants consider sacred.<\/p>\n
