Synopsis:

 We shoot the Incas’s festival to the God Sun. In winter, the people present to their leader a report of the events that had taken place the previous year and then he establishes a dialogue with the "Inti", to foretell the new year. At present, this festival is celebrated on June 24, Incaico, in remembrance of the magnificent and most solemn festivity of the vanished Empire. The setting of the Inti Raymi is the fortress of Sacsayhuamán, located in the north zone of the city of Cuzco. We also travelled through the Machu Picchu and visited the ruins of Wiñay Huayna and Choquesuy.
