06:40 HRS Departure from OUR TERMINAL IN CUSCO. Andahuaylillas "Sistine Chapel of the Americas" We visit the church of San Pedro Apostol de Andahuaylillas, built by the Jesuits in the 16th century. Like other Spanish and religious constructions of the era, it was built on top of a huaca or sacred place for the Incas.
Made of adobe and brick, the church is a small structure consisting of a single nave, apse and bell tower. But there is a reason it is known as the Sistine Chapel of the Americas.
Raqchi – "Temple of Wiracocha" The most important building within the complex is the "Temple of Wiracocha" which, according to ancient chroniclers, was built by Inca Wiracocha in honor of the invisible Supreme God of the Andean people "Apu Kon Titi Wiracocha". The "Temple of Wiracocha" is a large construction for that age.
Architecturally it is classified as "Kallanka", that is, a tall building completely covered with thatch. Marangani Buffet Lunch La Raya (tourist stop with beautiful Andean landscapes) Abra La Raya is the watershed between the valley that flows into Lake Titicaca and the valley leading to Cusco and the Sacred Valley. The altitude is 4,338 meters.
Pucara Museum – "The Fertility Temple" Pucara was the first regional population center in the northern Lake Titicaca basin during the Late Formative Period (500 BC – 200 AD), providing valuable information about the origins of Andean civilization on the altiplano.
The Pucara style is identified by impressive monolithic sculptures with a variety of geometric, zoomorphic and the most intricate anthropomorphic images, multi-colored ceramics in a variety of ritual and domestic forms. 17:00 HRS Arrival in PUNO (BUS TERMINAL)
