The Huichol are a group of natives originating from central Mexico, they are world famous for there amazing embroidery and beautiful handicraft. The spiritually devoted people from this tribe make a pilgrimage once a year from their current lands in western Mexico to a place called Real de Catorce, where they perform a yearly ceremony, they visit a holy place called "El Cerro del Quemado" up in the mountains.

I have been there my self it's a great place to visit if you feel the calling, a great place for visions.

It was a bit of a private and spiritual adventure, but I will share a few images here.
Maybe I'll share some more in the future, the photos are taken by me @friendly-fenix
