As the world around us becomes incr

As the world around us becomes increasingly high-tech, and scientific fact becomes the central pillar of our society, it’s comforting to know that there are still places that take time to pay homage to our primordial past, particularly those that allow us to suspend our belief and give into magic and mythology. For one such experience, there is Inti Raymi , a nine-day winter solstice celebration worshiping the Incan god Inti in the city of Cusco . Involving colorful costumes, lavish banquets, festive music, an elaborate reenactment of ancient Inca rituals, and culminating in a royal procession to an ancient fortress—if its magic and mythology you’re looking for, you’ve come to the right place.
