GUATEMALA-RELIGION-HOLY WEEK-GOOD FRIDAY-PROCESSION

Tourists make carpets with coloured sawdust before the passage of a Good Friday procession, in Santiago Atitlan, Guatemala, on April 7, 2023. Guatemala's Holy Week -- a vibrant celebration that mixes Mayan rituals with Catholic religious fervor -- was inscribed by UNESCO on its list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in November 2022. Despite its name, the festival actually stretches over six weeks, reaching a fever pitch at Easter as the Central American country is transformed by extravagant processions, vigils, and the laying of brightly colored carpets throughout the streets.
