The importance of preserve the native cultures of Latin America. His words, deep and full of meaning, resonated throughout the continent. But for those of us who know Cusco, this call has a special echo. Here, where the Andes embrace the sky, the ancient wisdom It lives on and is intertwined with colonial Catholic history in a unique way.
Cusco: Where two worlds coexist
Walking through Cusco is walking through two worlds at the same time. The old one inca empire, with its worldview linked to the Pachamama and the Apus, coexists with the traces of evangelization, visible in cathedrals, churches and religious festivities.
The Coricancha, ancient temple of the Sun, is now also the Convent of Santo Domingo. It is no coincidence: it represents the crossroads between the ancestral and the Christian. This living mix of cultures is just what the Pope calls to value and protect.
Meaningful travel: a new way to explore
Nowadays, many people are looking for more than just pretty photos: they are looking for trips that transform. Visiting Cusco is not just visiting Machu Picchu. It is also connecting with ancient rites, with the energy of the Andes, with communities that still live according to the cycles of the earth. It is opening yourself to a deep spirituality, beyond religions.
And in this context, the Pope's words invite us to see tourism not as consumption, but as a bridge to respect and understanding.
