FULL DAY: SOUTH VALLEY; TIPON -PIKILLAQTA – ANDAHUAYLILLAS

For this Full Day to the South Valley, Tipon and Andahuaylillas from Cusco, we will pick you up from your hotel at 08:15 hours to have a guided tour in the southern valley where you can visit the following places: Valle Sur Cusco as the archaeological park of Tipón: A large impressive cultivation area containing 12 terraces that are currently cultivated, whose walls were built with finely carved stones. Even more impressive is the irrigation engineering system that is still serving agriculture and the advantage is the water intake in the spring season.

Then, we will go to Pikillaqta: It presents characteristics of a large urban center corresponding to the time of development of the Wari Empire with more than a thousand constructions between squares, colcas (food deposits), courts or houses, temples, long and narrow streets with buildings that had up to 4 meters high. Finally, we will go to Andahuaylillas: Typical Andean village of the time of the colony of singular origin and architecture.

Andahuaylillas stands out its Catholic temple from the colonial era with a beautiful decoration and mural painting of the seventeenth and eighteenth century known as the Sistine Chapel of Cusco. Upon return, we will enjoy the delicious pork rinds (optional). We will be returning to the city of Cusco at approximately 03:30 p.m.
