This group of buildings is located in the middle of the desert and facing the sea. Temples like the Acllahuasi; the Old Temple and the Temple of the Sun will allow us to know the pre-Hispanic architecture.

PACHACAMAC ARCHAEOLOGICAL CENTER (1 hour and 30 minutes) Continuing with our tour, we will visit the Aclawasi “Temple of the Virgins of the Sun”, a sacred site where women selected for their manual, culinary skills or physical beauty lived and worked, and who were at the service of the Inca empire. The Aclawasi of Pachacamac was one of the largest and most important on the coast. Likewise, we will appreciate the different buildings that are part of this impressive place, buildings from cultures such as Lima, Wari, Ichma and Quechua, which left testimony of their ingenuity and ability to survive in a territory as adverse as the coastal desert.
