What is Inti Raymi?
Inti Raymi, or the Festival of the Sun, was the largest and most important celebration during the Inca Empire. It was a religious celebration dedicated to the Sun god, Inti, the most revered deity in the Inca religion. The main ceremony occurred during the winter solstice, marking the beginning of the year in the Andean world.
