What to expect
Chucuito
Nuestra primera parada será en la ciudad de Chucuito considerada como ciudad de las cajas reales, se tendrá una breve parada en su plaza mayor que está ubicado a 18 km un viaje de 20 minutos al sur de la ciudad de Puno, donde se puede apreciar un reloj solar hecho en piedra de alabastro que data del 1610, reconstruido en 1825 y su iglesia con característicos arcos de la época colonia, después de ello se visitara el famoso templo de la fertilidad llamado “inka uyu” (época pre inca) para ir conociendo la característica arquitectónica Lupaca y orígenes de la cultura Qhapaq que dio origen a los incas.
Después de una breve parada se visitará Aramu Muro Conocido también como Wilca Uta, o puerta del diablo dicho lugar está ubicado a 75 km un viaje de 40 minutos desde las chullpas de Molloco, sobre la carretera que conecta con Bolivia. Aramu muro es una roca donde esta tallada una puerta en bajo relieve, donde se puede encontrar muchas leyendas una de ellas dice que Aramu muro (dios en la época pre inca) habría desaparecido en esta puerta tallada en la piedra (Jayu Marka = ciudad de los espíritus) llevándose un disco solar de los Lemurias para no ser robado por los conquistadores. Este lugar es misterioso la población local cuenta que existe espíritus rondando esa puerta y la zona es energética lugar también no muy visitado por viajeros.
El sitio arqueológico de Sillustani es un cementerio que se construyó en el siglo XII por una civilización que ocupo el área antes del dominio Inca. Los creadores de las imponentes torres funerarias se conocen pertenecían a la cultural Kolla. Las torres mas imponentes fueron construidas para los jefes y sacerdotes importantes. Para nuestras civilizaciones antiguas los cementerios eran lugares de descanso para sus muertos y por eso elegían estratégicamente hermosos lugares para construir sus cementerios y estos eran considerados lugares sagrados. Al caminar alrededor de la península, podemos sentir la energía que emana del sitio. Muchas personas vienen a apreciar este paisaje único rodeado de montañas y la hermosa laguna Umayo, y no se van sin antes sentir como sus corazones se recargan de paz.
