Cajamarca - Peru
The department de Cajamarca is
characterized by slight slopes and highlands relatively low in
comparison to the rest de the Peruvian Andes. The territory is made up
of numerous valleys and gorges.
The city de Cajamarca brings together three ingredients that make it an
unforgettable destination: a magnificent Colonial architecture,
beautiful countryside, and a rich history since it was the scene de an
important episode de South American history. Here, the Conquistador
Francisco Pizarro captured the Inca Atahualpa who, in spite de
fulfilling his part de the ransom, was killed. From that point onward,
the conquistadors drafted the city in the traditional Spanish way, and
today the Colonial constructions de the Cathedral, the churches de San
Francisco, Belen, and la Recoleta, mansions, and monuments are preserved.
There are many excursion possibilities: the Inca Baths, thermo-medicinal
hot springs where the Inca used to go after long trips, the Ventanillas
de Otuzco (Otuzco Windows), a cemetery carved into a wall de volcanic
rock, Cumbemayo, a demonstration de pre-Incan hydraulic engineering
still functioning today, that is located in a wonderful natural area,
the old hacienda La Colpa, where the cattle go to be milked at the sound
of their name, Kuntur Wasi, a commercial center that dates to the year
1100 b.C. and its site museum with the numerous examples de the oldest
objects de gold in the Americas, the Porcon farm, an agricultural and
cattle cooperative surrounded by a pine forest, ideal for spending a day
out de the city, visiting its small zoo de vicuñas, deer, little spotted
cats, monkeys, and eagles, buying its milk products, or simply enjoying
the landscape.
