HUACAS "? For those of you who wonder about the "buzzword", I will tell you they are archaeological sites of the Andean cultures. This inverse pyramid, ie its apex starts from below, from the bottom and therefore do not see it, we reached the base of it which is shown as a semi plateau.
The Hucas formed through successive burial ceremonial centers, each time a local lord died, the whole school was filled with bricks, room after room ... and on this basis the new temple was built, higher than the previous for the new master. three, four, five and nine different levels for the gentlemen ... Today
constantly discover new huacas in Peruvian territory, but not all can be brought to light, the price of each excavation is enormous and there are plenty of Temples looted over the centuries by looters who sold off the treasures found. Huaca Pucllana
In the heart of Lima, you can visit the site, it Huaca which opens our eyes to the past of the Peruvian capital, still under excavation, but unfortunately, the evolution of the city, previous years to it will prevent much further to go ... I would say that does not extend the area, since invaded all the surrounding buildings. But it is a bit of yesterday that are worth visiting and why not? any night, in the shadow of the stars, have a drink or dinner at the restaurant attached to the Huaca
; Recreation yesterday at the site of Huaca Pucllana.
A sample of how the past is right under our feet ... for years the children of Lima,
played, laughed, ran a bicycle, on this hill which was a ceremonial center of Lima culture and today have been rescued, with its adobe building with enormous arranged in neat vertical and burial remains of the culture that succeeded it (600 to 1200 AD), the Huari culture.
