The tour will commence with Chinchero Boutique Tours picking you up from your hotel around 8:00 a.m. We will head towards Tipon, where you will witness the incredible hydraulic water system and a sacred site where the Incas worshipped water.
Presently, water still flows through various channels and platforms at the site, and your guide will provide you with all the relevant information.
We then continue our journey to the pre-Inca archaeological site of Piquillacta, where we appreciate the excellent urban planning of the Wari pre-Inca culture surrounded by stunning mountains and lakes.
Next, we head to Andahuaylillas, where we visit the Church of San Pedro, considered the “Sistine Chapel of America.” The façade is adorned with magnificent murals and two large stone columns at the main entrance.
