What is Inti Raymi: Celebrating Inca Heritage about?
The Inti Raymi festival celebrates the Inca sun god Inti and the winter solstice. Originally an Inca festival established in the 1430s, it was later banned by Spanish conquistadors but revived in 1944 to celebrate Inca culture. Today in Cusco, Peru, the festival features colorful reenactments of the ancient Wawa Inti Raymi ceremony in locations like Coricancha Temple, Plaza de Armas, and Sacsayhuaman fortress, with hundreds of actors dressing as Inca nobility and commoners.
