Southern Valley

If you want to see some of the most unique and little-known archaeological sites in Peru, there are few better ways to do so than to take a tour of the Southern Valley. Depending on which tour you take, you'll visit sites from colonial times, Incan times, and even some that predate the Incan empire, but typical highlights include the Tipon water temple, the pre-Incan town of Pikillacta, and the baroque temple of Andahuaylillas. Many of the tours also include food, so you'll have the chance to try unique local dishes like guinea pig and a sweet anise bread known as pan chuta. Southern Valley Map
