“A magical place. The Sillustani archeological complex is the most important in our region. Here you will have the chance to observe impressive examples of the pre-Inca architecture considered masterpieces even by modern architectural standards. Here, huge funerary towers are set in spectacular landscapes formed by the surrounding mountains and the “Humayo” lagoon. Life here has changed very little over the centuries, and we visit a traditional native house with its guinea pigs, llamas, potato farming etc and learn from its residents about real life in the Altiplano region. A fascinating glimpse into the local culture.
