About this experience
On the way to the Sillar Route where you will visit quarries and areas where the ashlar originated, we will visit the Añashuayco Quarry; in the place we can appreciate an immense canyon with skylights that are several meters high, formed by extraction for the formation of the Sillares, you can appreciate a Mega-carving of the Church of the Society of Jesus made by the stonemasons themselves. We can also visit one of them so that they can explain how their daily work is and make us experiment by cutting one of their stone blocks ourselves then we will move to the Quebrada de Culesbrillas, At this point we will do a walk of approximately 20 minutes inside the small canyon that was formed by the passage of water At the end of the walk we can observe petroglyphs made by the Wari culture more than a thousand years ago. Remember that in the beginning we visited the Mirador de Yanahuara.
