SILLUSTANI CHULLPAS

We will pick you up by car to the hotel to leave the city of Puno to the northwest, towards the Chullpas de Sillustani. These towers, from the pre-Inca and Inca periods, have different shapes and heights, some measuring up to 12 m. They are funeral towers in which the religious buried their leaders. They are located on a hill overlooking Lake Umayo, so that, apart from knowing a little about the history of the place, you can enjoy and photograph a spectacular landscape.

On the shores of the lake we will see waru waru, agricultural systems that consist of platforms surrounded by water channels, in order to create a microclimate that protects crops. Back in Puno, we will pass by the village of Atuncolla, where we will have access to some customs of the local inhabitants, the collas. We will finish our tour in the city of Puno.
