Parque Arqueologico De Raqchi
Raqchi lies about 120 kilometers southeast of Cusco, on the Ruta del Sol (Route of the Sun), which connects Cusco to Puno and stretches for 400 kilometers. This route was vital for the Inca Empire, linking the capital to Lake Titicaca while passing through many important sites, including Raqchi. As always, the Incas carefully chose their construction sites. Here, they could monitor trade, control the passage of travelers, and protect the region from potential attacks.
