Lord
of Miracles Festival
Location: Lima
Date: October 18-28
This procession, which gathers together the largest
number of believers in South America, dates back to
colonial times, when a slave, brought over from Angola,
drew the image of a black Christ on the walls of a
wretched hut in the plantation of Pachacamilla, near
Lima.
The image stayed on the wall despite several attempts to
erase it.
As a result of this event, worship of the image rose to
new heights, until it became what is today the most
widely venerated image in the city of Lima. The heart of
the celebration is one of the largest processions to
take place every year in the Americas, where tens of
thousands of the faithful dress in purple tunics,
singing hymns and praying as they accompany the image.
The litter which bears the painting weighs two tons and
is borne on the shoulders of believers who set out on
the traditional 24-hour procession from the church of
Las Nazarenas, crossing downtown Lima until it reaches
the church of La Merced in Barrios Altos. Around this
time of year, the streets fill with vendors of a wide
variety of typical dishes and sweets, such as the famous
Turrón de Doña Pepa.
In October to commemorate the Lord of Miracles (Señor de
los Milagros), Lima hosts the well-known bullfight
season which carries the same name and is held in the
centuries-old Plaza de Acho bullring. The season
features some major bullfighters (toreros) from Spain
and Latin America. |
