The end of the college means the beginning of something new. Here in Cusco is a college, which celebrates games with their male graduates to transfer them to adulthood. It is a tradition which is only celebrated in recent years. Since the year 2,000 the male graduates have to pass some tests to become real men. Once they passed these they are receiving the right to marry, to own their own land, to start their own family etc.
You will be able to watch the games of Warachikuy every year on the third Sunday in September, 19 September this year, at the archaeological complex of Sacsayhuamán.
The today rather touristic Fiesta de Warachikuy once was taken very serious in the ancient times. It still gives you a good idea and the possibility to travel back in time and imagine how the Incas once had celebrated the new men.
Be part of this annual happening and celebrate the new men, check in at one of our FOUR PIRWA HOSTELS in Cusco. Make your reservation today!
We are looking forward to welcome you at A BETTER PLACE TO STAY!!!
