Nestled in the remote mountains of southern Peru, Choquequirao offers a breathtaking glimpse into the ancient Inca civilization.
Often referred to as the “sister city” of Machu Picchu, Choquequirao boasts a similar architectural style and grandeur, but on a significantly larger scale.
Unlike its more famous counterpart, Choquequirao has remained relatively untouched by the throngs of tourists. This pristine state allows visitors to experience the site’s natural beauty and historical significance in a more peaceful and authentic setting.
Constructed in late 15th Century AD, Choquequirao is renowned for its impressive agricultural terraces, ceremonial plazas, and intricate stone structures. The city’s strategic location provided access to vital resources and served as a key religious and administrative center.
