Pilgrims walk towards the Lord of Huanca in Cuzco, Peru. Devotees from across Peru and neighboring countries come to Cuzco to make the annual seven-hour night hike to the mountain, to honor a 339-year-old image of Christ scourged and bleeding, known as the Lord of Huanca, on the walls of the shrine. The 3-day celebration beginning on the eve of Sept. 14, attracts thousands of people carrying candles and flowers to the shrine, which is also accessible by vehicle. (Rodrigo Abd/Associated Press)
