Its name is related to the stones with which its terraces were raised and some rock carvings that have been found. These seem to tell a story to those who visit this place, as if they were speaking to us. Bunkuany, the "place of the stones that speak". Although the archaeological complex of Bunkuany is less extensive than that of Ciudad Perdida, it has quite large terraces and, as happens with Ciudad Perdida or Teyuna, "The second Lost City" has several streams and rivers nearby, which makes to enjoy a refreshing swim while doing the Bunkuany tour.
