The Inti Raymi is one of the most important celebrations in the cultural calendar of Peru, especially in the city of Cusco, considered the ancient capital of the Inca Empire. This event represents the veneration of the sun god, Inti, and marks the winter solstice in the southern hemisphere, celebrating the beginning of a new agricultural cycle.
The Inti Raymi festival in Cusco is an impressive spectacle that attracts thousands of people from all over the world. It is held every June 24 and takes place in several emblematic settings, including the Qorikancha Temple, the Plaza de Armas and the Sacsayhuaman fortress.
During Inti Raymi, various ceremonies are held to recreate the original Inca rituals. Actors and dancers dressed in traditional costumes represent important figures of the Inca culture, such as the Inca, the Coya and the high priest. Offerings are made to the Pachamama (Mother Earth) and the sun god, while dances and ancestral music are performed.
This celebration is not only a significant cultural event for the people of Cusco, but also an internationally renowned tourist attraction. Visitors have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich history and traditions of the ancient Inca empire, in addition to enjoying the spectacular dances, music and colorful costumes that characterize Inti Raymi in Cusco
