Itinerary and highlights
Today Is The Best Day Of All Our Lives!!
Our adventure begins when we pick you up from your hotel with our private vehicle to be driven firstly to Andahuaylillas where we visit the Saint Peter church of Andahuaylillas, considered as the “Sistine Chapel of America.” It was built by the Order of the Jesuits at the end of the 16th century and the princes of the 17th century. Its architectural structure is typical for village churches. Its walls are wide like all the colonial buildings, made of sun-dried bricks of mud (adobe), the facade is decorated with magnificent murals, and two large stone columns at the main entrance.
Although its ‘architecture is relatively modest, the decoration of its interior is unique and impressive. We can first mention a picture of the “Assumption of the Virgin,” painted by the Spanish historical painter Esteban Murillo. You will also see wall paintings attributed to Luis de Riaño (17th century).
Then we continue with our journey towards the Pre-Inca archaeological site of Piquillacta, where we enjoy the huge urban planning of the pre-Inca Wari culture surrounded by stunning mountains and lakes.
Afterwards the journey will be continuing to the spectacular archaeological site of Tipon, where we will see the best of Inca hydraulic water work system that are very well preserved.
