As you will find during your time walking, Peru is a place where you will see modern day life cross over with tradition at every turn. Peruvian culture from many generations, which date back as far back as the time of the Incas is everywhere you look and is unlikely to be forgotten for many, many years to come. Witchcraft is one aspect of these traditions that you are likely to come across during your trip, so where do you find the witches whilst you’re walking Peru?
The Witches Market, San Pedro, Cusco
Tucked away in the older and more colonial area of Cusco and found within the San Pedro market, the witches market is a true indication of the age-old and revered traditions of Peru. The myriad of stalls and booths sell little bottles of magic potions and concoctions of many different varieties which are both exotic and unusual. With incenses that can make people fall in love with you, dried frogs to bring you financial fortune, dried llama to bring you luck, and amulets that inspire lust, the magic simply seeps out of the stones in the market place. If you want to get really involved with the witchery, get your tarot cards read or your fortune told, and you might just get advanced warning of any bad luck that you might face whilst walking Peru. Forewarned is forearmed as they say!
The Witch Doctor
As well as the various potions you’ll find in the witches market, you will also come across all sorts of remedies and herbal medicines that can be used to cure any maladies you might have picked up whilst walking. Peru’s witch doctors have been around for centuries, and over the years they have collected an unfathomable amount of knowledge of traditional and homeopathic remedies, and the curative power of plants. So, make the most of the chance to get your blisters banished, your muscles soothed, and your aches and pains abolished by the alternative methods and medicines of the witch doctors of Peru.
The Witch Garden
After all the walking, Peru’s culinary offerings will certainly be most welcome. And, if you’re looking for tradition and witchcraft, where better to go for dinner than the Witches Garden. With a cosy and candle-lit dining room, this restaurant emanates the weird and wonderful atmosphere of a witches coven, with a menu that will leave you clamouring for second helpings. Featuring a vast menu of foods from all over the world, the Witch Garden also ensures that traditional Peruvian fare features on the menu several times, giving the restaurant a tremendous sense of authenticity. Lamb and vegetarian dishes are available for those who are feeling slightly less adventurous, or hoping to leave room for dessert, which is advisable given the infamous Black Hole Cake for which the restaurant has become renowned.
So, if you want to see the best of the tradition and culture while you’re walking Peru, why not start with witchcraft and go from there!
