Inti Raymi - Cuzco

During the Inca Empire the Inti Raymi (festival of the sun) was one of the most important ceremonies in honor of the god Inti. Nowadays the celebration is held every 24th of June and brings thousands of tourists to Cuzco. Today it is the second largest festival in the South America. Hundreds of actors are chosen to represent historical figures. During this time Cuzco is even more colorful than usual. You can observe people dancing on the streets, fireworks and street fairs.

You can find local "snacks" like cuyo (guinea pig)

Pisco Sour is a typical cocktail of Peru.

It is a combination of Pisco, key lime (or lemon), egg white, angostura bitters and ice. Delicious ;) ¡Salud!
