Some journeys last a weekend, others a week or two\u2026 and then there are those that unfold over decades\u2014across communities, dirt roads, churches, and shared silences. This is the kind of path Robert Francis Prevost<\/strong>, now Pope Le\u00f3n XIV, walked during his years as a missionary in the land of the Incas. Inspired by his legacy, the Peruvian government has launched \u201cIn the Footsteps of Pope Le\u00f3n XIV,<\/strong>\u201d a new tourist route retracing his steps across the country. More than a devotional journey, it\u2019s an invitation to discover a lesser-known Peru<\/mark><\/a><\/strong>, where spirituality, heritage, and daily life intersect and intertwine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Officially presented in July 2025, the route includes more than 35 sites<\/strong> across the regions of Lambayeque<\/strong>, La Libertad<\/strong>, Piura<\/strong>, and Callao<\/strong>. Each stop marks a key location in his pastoral mission. For nearly 40 years, he lived and worked in these areas, leaving a profound legacy still visible today in restored churches, active communities, and the memory of local populations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
