Discover the iconic Sillar Route, a tourist itinerary full of history and living traditions. This tour begins with a stop at the historic main square of the Cayma district, perfect for capturing memorable photographs alongside the majestic local church.
The journey continues to the Añashuayco Quarry, which we will reach after a 35-minute drive. This active site allows us to observe the stonemasons working from early morning, extracting sillar that forms impressive cliffs several meters high. Here, you will learn about the history and process of sillar production, as well as its continued use over time. Notable is an impressive Megatallado of the Church of the Company, a masterpiece created by the stonemasons themselves.
Next, we will head to the Quebrada de Culebrillas, located just 20 minutes from Añashuayco. From there, we will embark on a 20-minute walk through a canyon formed by the watercourse, with walls reaching 15 to 20 meters in height that rise as we advance. The trek culminates with the discovery of ancient petroglyphs left by the Wari culture over a thousand years ago. Before returning, we will have the chance to admire the Apachetas, stone stacks symbolizing gratitude to nature and attracting good fortune, creating an atmosphere of unparalleled mysticism.
