In the highlands of Guatemala, the festival of Barriletes Gigantes transforms the November skies into a vibrant canvas. With roots in the ancient Maya tradition, these giant, handcrafted kites, some reaching over 20 metres, soar above to honour the dead and dispel bad spirits. The spectacle is a dazzling fusion of art, history, and spiritual devotion, bringing communities together in a unique cultural celebration.
