Carhuamayo

Carhuamayo is a town in the province of Junín, located beside the lagoon Chinchaycocha in full blossom plateau. Carhuamayo villagers are very kind and hospitable, have an interest in disseminating the customs of its people. I found myself in the Congress of the Republic and I reported the feast of the patron saint of the town: Santa Rosa de Lima.

12 Apus and 4 Butlers who are responsible for keeping alive the carhuamainas customs are responsible for the realization of this festival. The preparation is done long in advance. When given the truca, begin to develops the costumes used during the party.

The celebration begins from the month of March, with a mass in honor to Santa Rosa de Lima and the respective procession through the streets of Carmahuayo. In July, the Santa is pilgrimage on the homes of the Apus and stewards with canticos, Rosary prayers and prayers of request. Celebrates the traditional feast of Aswanacuy, which is the preparation of the meat in the early days of the month of August and end of the month is celebrated the traditional Pinquichi.

The feast ends in the early days of the month of September with the Ayhuala to Watancama (I'm going until next year)
