Itinerary and highlights

This is a 17th-century church, also known as the Sistine Chapel of the Andes for the beauty of its murals, gold-leaf work, and the Cusco school paintings it houses.

Also known as the Temple of the god WIRACOCHA, who was the supreme Inca deity, in this place we will find the largest number of Colcas (Granaries) and we will also see magnificent buildings made of stone and adobe.

A culture that developed from 1600 BC to 400 AD, located 106 km east of the city of Puno, this museum features ceramics and sculptures depicting zoomorphic figures, including the famous sculpture of HATUNÑAQAC, which in our time would be translated as the supreme throat-slasher.
