Overview

This all-day tour brings you to the Chavín Archaeological Monument, which is one of the oldest sites in the Americas — construction began around 1500 BC. People came to this centre to consult the oracle and to make offerings to the gods. The exterior walls are decorated with a series of zoomorphic (part animal) faces. Other highlights of the complex include the Tello Pyramid, the Circular Plaza, the Rectangular Plaza, the New Temple, and the Old Temple. In the village of Chavín de Huantar, just a few minutes from the complex, the museum exhibits archaeological artefacts found in the complex.
