Tiwanaku & Lake Titicaca Tour (Full Day)

Tiwanaku is an ancient pre-Inca civilization located in the Andean highlands of Bolivia near Lake Titicaca. It is believed to have been inhabited from as early as 1500 BCE and was one of the most important cultural centers of the Andes region before the Inca Empire. Tiwanaku was a major political, economic, and religious center for a wide area of the central Andes. Its monumental architecture and large-scale sculptures show a highly developed level of art and craftsmanship.

Tiwanaku was a religious center and home to many gods, including the sun deity, Inti. It was also home to a complex network of irrigation canals, roads, and temples that helped to develop the area’s agriculture. Its use of terraced fields, raised platforms, and sophisticated stone masonry were also innovative and are believed to have influenced the development of other pre-Columbian civilizations.

Tiwanaku was abandoned around 1200 CE, likely due to changes in climate, soil erosion, and internal conflicts. Its legacy, however, remains an important part of the cultural history of the Andes. Today, Tiwanaku is a popular tourist destination and an important archaeological site.
