LA TUNANTADA 2026 YAUYOS - JAUJA ( Una de las fiestas más grandes del Valle del Mantaro)

Hello friends, today we are in Yauyos, Jauja. As you know, this district is celebrating its patron saints, Saint Fabian and Saint Sebastian. As you can see, Yauyos welcomes us with its beautiful handicrafts, its rich stews, and delicious breads and rolls from Jauja, as well as the suckling pig, artisanal liquors, and a variety of other local products. It is well known that La Tunantada is a reflection of cultural syncretism, which is further reflected in its characters: “El Chuto,” “El Huatrila or Indian,” “El Español, Príncipe or Chapetón,” “La Jaujina,” “La Sicayina,” “El Doctorcito,” “María Pichana,” “El Boliviano or Jamille,” “El Tucumano, Argentino or Arriero,” “La Huanquita,” “El Chuncho or Shipibo,” and “La Cuzqueña.” For these and many other reasons, in 2011 La Tunantada was declared a Cultural Heritage of the Nation. #traditions #juninzff #tunantada #dance
