  • Patience and respect are highly valued. While lateness is generally understood, punctuality is expected for business appointments. Always show respect and deference to elders and authority figures. Greetings are customary when passing strangers in the street. Note: Use 'campesino' or 'indígena' instead of the offensive term 'indio' when referring to indigenous people.

About this holiday

Corpus Christi is a Catholic liturgical solemnity that celebrates the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. The feast's liturgy connects to historical observances, including the institution of the Eucharist and the washing of the disciples' feet.
