<br />Your adventure begins with a pick-up from your hotel, followed by a journey along the Pan-American Highway heading South towards Pachacamac. This archaeological gem, situated just thirty minutes from Lima City, was constructed in 200 AD and stands as one of the most significant Pre-Inca religious centres on the Peruvian coast.
<br /><br />Originally part of the Ichma culture (though largely built by the Wari people and later conquered by the Incas), Pachacamac was a sacred site dedicated to the worship of Pachacámac, the deity believed to have created the world.
<br /><br />This spiritual hub, home to numerous temples, remained active for centuries until the Spanish arrived, marking the beginning of the Inca Empire's decline. At the conclusion of this enlightening tour, you'll be comfortably transported back to your hotel.
