Tour to the Sacred City of Caral

We’ll picked you up at your hotel in Lima between 7:00 and 7:15am and we’ll leave Lima heading to the beautiful Supe Valley by bus. There we’ll find the remains of the oldest civilization in the Americas, the Sacred City of Caral. The trip will take around 3 hours until we get to the archeological complex.

Then will go at the imposing Main Pyramid, an imposing building which dominates the site’s urban zone. According to the archaeologists the top of the big pyramid allowed the visual control of activities done in the city and big part of the  surroundings. The body of a youth was found here who appeared to have been sacrificed in honor to the gods, as well as wall drawings and shark’s teeth adornments. It’s believed the Main Pyramid represented Caral’s political, administrative and religious center. From this point we can appreciate the green valley of Caral located behind the pyramid.
