Built in the fifteenth century, it is
considered by the historians to be one of
the most audacious Inca constructions. The
remarkable Wiracocha temple, 100 meters
(328 feet) long and 20 meters (66 feet)

of volcanic stone foundations. The complex
also includes a residential area made for
the Inca nobles and dozens of circular
warehouses to store food. (PromPeru)
