Aqueduct of Cantayo and Paredones
The ancient inhabitants of Nazca developed a sophisticated system of underground water channels to irrigate the arid parts of the valley, allowing the Nazca Culture to successfully combat prolonged droughts. This irrigation system is unique in the world and demonstrates that pre-Inca hydraulic engineering was extremely advanced for its time. With an approximate age of 2,000 years, the complex features 28 underground aqueducts that are still functional today, showcasing the ingenuity of ancient Peruvian civilizations.

Every September 14, thousands of people walk 48 kilometers from the city of Cusco to the sanctuary of the Señor de Huanca, in the district of San Salvador, province of Calca, at 3,100 m.a.s.l. It is neither a tourist trekking trip nor an organized tour: it is a genuine pilgrimage that sets off at night from San Jerónimo and arrives at dawn on the main day. Here we explain the route, what it physical demands, and why this tradition continues to draw devotees from all over Peru and neighboring countries.
Planning your trip to Peru? Discover the best ways to reach Machu Picchu from Cusco. Compare options by train, bus, budget routes, and legendary trekking trails like the Inca Trail and Salkantay.
With the national holiday on August 6 (Battle of Junín) right around the corner, many travelers are organizing last-minute visits to Machu Picchu.
