Choquequirao: the Aymara chuqi, gold, and the Quechua K'iraw, cradle, ie "cradle of gold"), is an Inca city located between the foothills of the Salkantay snow in southern Peru. Choquequirao archaeological groups are comprised of buildings and terraces distributed in different levels from the lowest to the top Sunch'utruncated leg higher, which was leveled and fenced with stones to form a platform with an approximate area of 150 square meters.

Choquequirao (sometimes also referred to as Choqequirau or Choquekiraw) is known as the "sacred sister" of Machu Picchu on the structural and architectural resemblance to it. Recently, still partially excavated, has attracted the interest of the Peruvian government to claim still more complex and making it a more affordable alternative for tourists interested in learning more about the culture.

This archaeological complex for decades resisted the Spanish conquistadors. You can appreciate the grandeur of his work with architecture and perfect aesthetics. This complex is part of the system of Andean towns in Vilcabamba Valley. In Inca times was linked to the archaeological complex of Machu Picchu by a complex network of Inca roads. Currently he is visited by tourists and tour as students of world history. Its flora and fauna of high forest and topography also draw attention from visitors. This group has several archaeological Inca constructions and so it was declared Cultural Heritage by the governments of France and Peru. This is Choquequirao and invite you to learn in a unique and unforgettable adventure fun.
