The Peruvian festival of Inti Raymi, or the Festival of the Sun, is held each year on the winter solstice. This ancient annual Incan festival, brought back to life in the 1940s, celebrates the start of new life, and a new fire is lit to represent this beginning. The streets are decorated with flowers as the great and good of the city, dressed in all their finery, parade through the streets, accompanied by music, prayers and dancing.
