Abode of the Gods Day Trip
Abode of the Gods Day Trip
Having picked you up from your hotel in Cusco at 9 am, we'll set off northbound for the town of Sencca. After around 45 minutes on the road, we'll come to Apukunaq Tianan, the Abode of the Gods.
As soon as you arrive, you'll find yourself in awe of this beautiful ensemble of giant sculptures carved into the limestone rock. We'll start walking around the Abode of the Gods and discovering the meaning of this place and all the sculptures we see. Some of them tower up to 33 feet (10 metres) high!
The puma, the three-dimensional door, the protective Apu or God Wiracocha, the Pachamama or the viewpoint are some of the sculptures we'll admire. From here, we'll also gaze out at breathtaking views of the city and the scenery surrounding it. Our guide will also share some of the best-kept secrets of Andean cosmology and the history of the Inca period.
We'll then return to Cusco and drop you off at your hotel at around 12 noon.
