		<description><![CDATA[With tickets sold to tourists priced at $80 each, indigenous Cusqueños are effectively barred from the modern-day recreations of their ancestors' most important religious event, Inti Raymi. Is there anything left in this "ritual" that reflects the Inca empire's glorious past, or is it all a show put on to make money from tourists? Camden Luxford explains.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[February is over, it is finally safe to come out of hiding and explain how carnival is celebrated in Peru. While Brazilians are building floats and flailing around, most Peruvians have to look over their shoulders. I have to mention Brazil because to most foreigners, the word carnival is synonymous with Peru's largest neighbour. It may come as a surprise to many though that carnival is a big deal in Peru too - in fact, the next biggest and best carnival experience in the Americas is hosted in the north of the Andean country, in beautiful Cajamarca. Here the hugely anticipated event is the local population's reason for being - and you can't blame them, read about it here.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Domesticated in Peru millennia ago, Maca was an essential crop for use in the alimentation of ancient Peruvians. Its affects on the body were numerous. It raised energy levels - Inca warriors would consume it before battles and messengers would consume it to be able to run up and down mountains day after day, old people who consumed it would work in the fields as if they were young. It would ward-off disease, increase fertility and could even be used to treat depression. It is also now proven as a cure for osteoporosis.]]></description>

In fact it happened every year and was very important - but thankfully well-rehearsed Inca rituals meant there was no real cause for alarm.]]></description>
