If you don't have anything to do, it is a good idea to kill your time with friends there is a cinema which is not as comfortable as you want but you can enjoy the movie apart from that there are plenty of stores and you can buy clothes, shoes, food even there are two supermarkets

Very nice mall. Clean and secure with easy parking.

Good mall with shops takeaway and ATM of 3 banks.

Hmmm meh

Small. Not much to do

Ok

Mall ...

Awesome customer service !

Bellisimo

Ok

The town is so random. It's in the middle of nowhere in the Peru desert, but Huacachina Hostels and Tours take advantage of that. They offer a great overnight tour that includes taking dune bugs and having an awesome time. They'll stop at a large dune and let you sand ski down it. You'll get caked in sand, but it's worth it. The guide then makes you a great Peruvian meal over a fire. It's a GREAT time!

I liked riding a dune buggy is perfect for adrenaline its like a roller -coaster experience i enjoyed and amazing sunset. i spent a awesome trip

(Translated by Google) Scam! I took a 2-hour tour (4-6 p.m.) for sunset buggy + sandboarding. No one came to pick me up at the meeting point. The tour took place from 4:30 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. And obviously, no sunset... (Original) Arnaque! J'ai pris un tour de 2h (16h-18h) pour faire du buggy au coucher du soleil + sandboard. Personne n'est venu me chercher au point de rendez-vous. Le tour a eu lieu de 16h30 à 17h45. Et évidemment, pas de coucher de soleil...

(Translated by Google) It is a nice experience, because it is very different to see it in photos and videos and another thing to be there, we bought an All Included tourist package: They did not pick up from the bus station to Huacachina, we rode in tubular tubes, then we visited the Nazca lines and also the Ballestas Islands with the Paracas National Reserve. I highly recommend it, you're going to have fun!! ;) (Original) Es una linda experiencia, pues es muy diferentes verlo en fotos y vídeos y otra cosa estar allí, compramos un paquete turìstico All Included: No recogieron desde la estación de bus a Huacachina, paseamos en tubulares, luego visitamos las lineas de nazca y también las islas ballestas con la reserva nacional de paracas. Lo recomiendo mucho, se van a divertir!!;)

(Translated by Google) We booked the sandbox ride and the winery tour through the website, very good service, 100% recommended. (Original) Reservamos por la web site el paseo en areneros y el tour de las bodegas muy buen servicio 100% recomendado

(Translated by Google) Very good ! excellent partners. :D (Original) Muy bueno ! excelentes socios. :D

I come here every year and I love it! They take you far into the dunes and the sand boarding is awesome. I would definitely recommend to anyone coming to Peru its is a MUST have on your list.

Amazing experience, will definitely go again!

Their number won’t work. They don’t reply to any of your emails. And won’t refund your money as well. Don’t even book this! Go with the other option which has more reviews.

Not worth it

(Translated by Google) Unique experience! The driver I had was very rude, I thought the tubular was going to turn over. They had warned us but I didn't think it was a big deal, it made me lose my necklace. Despite all that, it is an excursion that I would do again. Beautiful sunset and fun with soundboarding (Original) Experiencia única! El chofer que me tocó fue muy bruto, pensé que se iba a dar vuelta el tubular. Nos habían avisado pero no pensé que era para tanto, me hizo perder mi collar. A pesar de todo eso es una excursión que volvería a hacer. Hermosa puesta al sol y diversión con el soandboarding

(Translated by Google) Great experience. Desert safari. Definitely try it (Original) Harika bir deneyim.Çölde safari.Mutlaka deneyin

This was AMAZING. I scuba dive and skydive but the thrill and the rush of those rides are like no other. Love it.

On Sunday it was crowded but with many restaurants and a very pleasant temperature in the shade around the lake it was a nice place to be. Don't miss taking a dune buggy ride - the drivers are skilled, safety conscious and will accommodate those looking for a more sedate ride. The dunes are magical.

Although quite touristic, it's still a beautiful spot thay is worth visiting. We also stayed two nights in there which made us connect deeper with the oasis. There are several nice restaurants and activities, so it's really worthwhile.

The only oasis above the desert in Peru.🏜️ It was a truly exciting day.🙆‍♂️ We drove a 4x4 buggy over the sand dunes.🏎️ We got our adrenaline pumping.😁 I felt like I was on a roller coaster as we went up and down dunes up to 30 meters high.🤷‍♂️ We stopped to enjoy the incredible views of the sunset and take another picture.📸

Magical desert oasis! An incredible place surrounded by golden dunes, where you can relax by the lagoon, enjoy sandboarding, or take a buggy tour to watch the sunset from the top of the dunes. The atmosphere is lively, with many restaurants and bars around. Definitely one of the most unique and beautiful spots in Peru!

This was such a fun experience! This was my first time sand boarding and I had the time of my life!!! It was money well spent. I booked it for an hour and that was enough for me, I couldn't imagine being up there for longer and not having a bathroom. I had to pee so bad, I'm surprised that I didn't pee on myself during that hour especially during the buggy rides.

Unbelivable place. Small but cozy with lovely and friendly people except those who wants to sell sunglasses and other staff and walk up to you. Must try the sandbuggy it's great fun.

This is a great place to visit. You can take lot of pictures, souveniers and lot of restaurants. 4 hours from lima and very safe place. If you are interest in going in buggys and enjoying desert activities , please check your health situation.. if you are having heart conditions, back pains ... i will avoid. You want to give adrenline push - enjoy Please enjoy the pictures and videos

Spectacular tour. Overwhelmed by the abilities of these ancient people. I'm sure the climate wasn't as harsh as it is now, but if it was, how did they survive the heat, lack of plantable soil and remoteness.

Fascinating archaeological site! The Inca Tambo Colorado ruins are very well preserved and give a great glimpse into Inca architecture and history in the coastal desert. The colors of the walls and the structure are impressive — definitely worth a visit if you love history and culture.

For the small entry cost (5 soles) this was an amazing place to visit and see the well preserved incan ruins. Guide Alex Arenas was very knowledgeable and did a great job of making the past come back to life for us!

Amazing how well-preserved this inka complex is. Also, there is a great view to the valey. Unfortunatly, it was closed when I arrived, but local guide offered me a small tour, totally worth it!!

Excellent, very impressive, large archaeological site of the Inca culture. Local information is kinda' limited.

Amazing ruins that no one seems to know about. This is a good thing because you have full access to all the areas. You can still see some of the original Incan paint on the walls.

Came here with Peru Hop. Our guide Edouard was informative and managed our big group very well. The diorama gives a great overview as well.

Beautiful and large winery! Drive in was a little sketchy on a tiny dirt road, all of the sudden you get to a big gate for the winery complex. We took the 1 hour tour, would’ve loved to do the full tour but they said they don’t have any English speaking guide for that, which is unfortunate, they should’ve specified this on their website. The complex and tour was nice, however the tour guide wasn’t very passionate at all.

I visited Tacama Winery with my parents and we had a very pleasant experience. The wine tasting with their sommelier was excellent with a good variety of wines which were all very good. The sommelier was friendly and explained a lot about the different types of wines and the tasting process in general. The stay in their restaurant was great aswell, with good food and good service. Also the tour around the winery itself, the guide and another small tasting were very enjoyable experiences and I personally learned a lot about wine making, the assortments of grapes and the history of Tacama Winery. Overall the personal is very well organised, the place is beautiful and the service is excellent. Of course their wines are just as good. Thanks for the amazing time

I had the best red wine I’ve had in my life here- el gran tinto. The causas were literally *chefs kiss*. There are different types of tours, and the traditional takes you through the wine making process as well as 3 cups of wine and one of pisco.

Amazing experience! We celebrated the 30th birthday of one of us here during our stay in Perù. Not only the food was amazing, but the wine as well (both the White and Red wines were superb, comparable in taste and uniqueness to our Italians wines). We also received an unexpected present for the birthday! We would like to thank especially Raphael who was super expert in explaining all the different wines and food and made us appreciate 100% the lunch. We really would like to buy wines online to Italy from this winery.

Beautiful winery. The food was overly abundant and excellent. Ordering a bottle of wine with dinner came with custom explanation of aeration and decanting. The tour was insightful but wished the choice of wines for tasting ranged better across the dry to sweets.

A very nice experience of some wine tasting and learning about the wine making. Our guide wasn't the most passionate and could have been more engaging. The wine wasn't to my liking, but each to their own! Come here for a lovely day out and I hope you find a wine that takes your breathe away!

Splendid place to visit in Ica, one of the very first winery in South America. Love the place, which I could share more photos. I was stunningly attached to the guide and histories 😂 without realizing that none of any photo has taken. Food was ok but love the place so 5 star is for “la hacienda” ❤️❤️❤️

Very interesting place to visit in Peru. A wide selection of tasty vines and a good way of tasting them. The prices of dishes in the restaurant are a bit too high for what you get. The taste is okey. The place, if busy, that is most of the time, can be a little noisy and the service in the restaurant doesn't seem to manage it all well.

Cool pisco sour distillery. I wish they gave more samples however. The pisco tasting wad super cheaply done. Not the same experience as wine tasting so I don't recommend it

I'm not sure the name of this restaurant is still the same. But, this is where we stopped during our excursion. When we got here, the place was empty. However, soon after we were seated, the restaurant quickly filled up. I'm guessing this is where all excursions met for food and wine tasting. The service was prompt, especially for our party consisting of 13, very diverse people. We all placed our orders and had our food soon after. We had the Chicharron de Cerdo, Chicharron de Pollo, and the Fettucine with Lomo Saltado. All dishes came with salsa criollo, ricotto. Along with some French fries. The food was good and simply prepared, letting the product speak for itself. For me, the star of the meal was the Chicharron de Pollo! Each bite had so much flavor. The atmosphere was pretty laid back, even though it got pretty busy. The wine tasting consisted of 4 wines and 2 or 3 pisco varieties. Everything was pretty tasty. Be advised that using the restroom here is different than in the United States. For one, there are no paper seat covers for your convenience. Also, toilet paper is not available inside of the stalls. The toilet paper is actually outside of the stall, and you have to get as much as you will need. Additionally, do not flush any paper down the toilet.

Free tour with Peru Hop. Interesting to know the difference between worldwide wine producers. We had free wine and pisco tasting as well, no hard selling from staff, we bought 2 bottles as these were excellent value. No credit card charges from merchant.

Just outside of Ica, Peru, you can find an authentic distillery for Pisco, a national Peruvian favorite. The tour is an excellent introduction into the production of this wine. The distillation process is explained and after the tour we were all treated to samples of Pisco products, including some made with locally grown fruits. We bought 3 bottles! Please be aware that several months later the fruity varieties have separated and will not re-mix. Hence, took off a star.

Went here as part of our peru hop stop and loved the little lady who took us on the tour around the place and gave us some samplings of their products. Very informative and tasty! Make sure to try their ice creams!

We stopped here with Peru hop. Often at stops like this you feel guilt tripped into buying, but El Catador was awesome. They give you so many testers so you can try before you buy or try simply for the experience. They gave us a short but sweet tour of how they make their Pisco and wine which was really interesting, our guide was amazing, super funny and informative. A good place to stop over and stretch your legs.

Do a little tour with the lady's there, but Spanish is needed. They guide you through the park. Really nice!

Nice park, the statues are well kept and liked the stories told for each one

Interesting, fun, and cheap tourist trap. Worth checking out if you're nearby!

The park is rather small, but the history of it is worth hearing. The sculptures of the witches are really interesting to see.

Come over to this park and listen to the stories of each witch that lived there. It's a great small park full of stories.

Lindo

Just a little spot for some sauntering, admiring the beautiful statues of las brujas.

A really cute park in the town of Ica, Peru that reminded us of the roadside attractions throughout the US in the 50s and 60s, like the largest ball of string, or a cafe that looks like a shoe. Ica is a beautiful pueblito in Peru that has alot of "folksy" attractions. This is representative of that genre. A great little tourist attraction that does not cost anything. I have attached some photos, and a couple of the town nearby. The town was struck by an earthquake a few years ago and is still recovering.

The photos show it all. There are only a few like it in the world. It's in the middle of nowhere in Ica and difficult to find, but it was neat to see! There are good restaurants around. The palms only take like 3-5 minutes to marvel at.

Don't bother with it, but a quick stop to take a picture why not I guess

Nice place, and a nice story behind the unique palm tree

Great spot to listen to one of the most known urban stories and believes in town.

There are only two of this ‘palmeira’ in the world. The other one stays in Africa. It is quite curious how one root of 50m can supplies for 7 big branches.

Few hundred year old palm, multiple trunks, magnificent site. It takes about 5 minutes to appreciate it and that is it, nothing else around. There is space for parking.

wasn't sure if it was worth it, but beautiful small museum with a collection from Pracas Nazca, Wari and Inca, with the best mummies I've seen in Peru so far

Excellent museum! Very well done and organized, with clear explanations and exhibits divided by the different pre-Columbian cultures of the region. You can see ceramics, textiles, and even a fascinating room with real mummies. A must-visit to understand the rich history of southern Peru.

Small and well organized museum. Really interesting artifacts and explanations on display, along with a reproduction of the Nazca lines for those who can't afford or don't have time to visit the lines themselves.

In the center of Ica stands a boring concrete block building that you would normally drive past without even thinking about it. Don't be fooled by the appearance of this museum: the Museo Regional de Ica "Adolfo Bermúdez Jenkins" has a small but excellent collection of artifacts that will give you a good impression of ancient Peruvian cultures. The museum was founded in 1946 by Fernando León de Vivero, Alejandro Pezzia and its namesake Adolfo Bermúdez Jenkins and it was the first museum in Peru to carry out paleontological studies of the archeological remains of indigenous cultures. Between 2011 and 2016, the museum's interior was thoroughly reorganized. The very interesting collection makes a visit definitely worth it!

A great museum. I was expecting something very plain and simple but I was surprised by the amount of info and rooms in the museum. I highly recommend it!

It’s a small great museum. Beautiful Pre-Columbia culture for textiles and potteries. And some mummies show the tomb culture near Ica

Good museum with great pieces.

A nice temple in Ica

(Translated by Google) The Cathedral of Ica is the main cathedral in the city of the same name. Located on Bolívar Street, it was part of the monumental complex of the Company of Jesus. The construction dates back to the 18th century and was remodeled in 1814. In 2007 it was damaged by an earthquake. The most attractive thing about this cathedral is its wonderful styles on which they are based, on the outside you can see a neoclassical style represented on its façade, as well as figures in high relief on the pediment and on the inside, the baroque style of the pulpit and the altars. It is currently closed to the public and looks deteriorated and abandoned. (Original) La Catedral de Ica es la principal catedral en la ciudad homónima.

Lo más atractivo para esta catedral, representa sus maravillosos estilos en la cual están basados, en la parte exterior se observa un estilo neoclásico representado en su portada además en el frontón figuras en alto relieve y en la parte interior, el estilo barroco del púlpito y los altares. Actualmente se encuentra cerrada al público y luce un aspecto deteriorado y abandonado.

You need to call ahead/text on WhatsApp to get in as it is run by a single person. I won't comment on whether I believe in the theory espoused in this museum. 5 stars because I love strange little museums like this and because the owner was very sweet and passionate.

We came to Ica only to see this Museum! We wrote a letter, but nobody answered us. Than we called and go. This place with some awesome energy and interesting information. Mr. Javier told a lection to us, showed stones and accepted to take photos, but not to touch. A lot of his life stories show what kind of men is he. He is a good man :) Some recommendation: before you come to Mr. Cabrera read information about he and his family. It is very useful and interesting!)

I am abiut a year late, but better late than never. My son and I tried to visit this place last April on our was to Naz a from Lima. I had scheduled a car from DayTrip.com with a 1.5 hour stop in Ica so we can see the museum when the opened at 10.00 am. We get there and they were closed. Someone pointed us to call the owner. Basically he wasn't feeling well so the museum was closed. He asked if we could visit in the afternoon which was not possible as our driver could not wait that long. So it was very disappointing. The whole museum shuts dow if one person is not available. That's Very lame. If you decide to go call ahead, which probably would not do us any good either as I had scheduled the car and driver several weeks ahead in advance.

At first, I was hesitant to visit due to the cost of our tour. But after my experience I would say it was well-worth the price. This is not your typical museum, you are greeted by Mr. Cabrera, who owns and operates this museum by himself. Do not expect to be able to see everything, but appreciate his story and his point of view. He has a very interesting perspective and will entertain you if you go in with an open mind. I would recommend this museum to anybody and say that it is the most interesting place you can visit in Ica.

It is not open like other museums. We arrived and found it closed, called the number and man told us he could arrive after 3 hours and the price is 40 soles per person. Had no time to wait.

We don't know about the truth behind the stones, and the extra-terrestrial theories, however the idea of a different human species living at the time of dinosaurs is very interesting. Thought-provoking, mind-bending and a great way to spend an hourish. If you are pleasant, then he is pleasant. Totally agree with his life philosophy and 'secret' to a happy life.

One of the most unusual collections of artifacts in thd world perfectly presented by the son of the famous Dr. Javier Cabrera - don Ernesto. When you are so close to those stones - the impression is totally different from any photos.

(Translated by Google) They sit inside their office waiting for someone to come and ask. They are not proactive, it seems that they prefer virtuality because WhatsApp does respond quickly, although they do not provide good information either. I asked about mobility from Cuenca Station to the Center, and they told me that buses CONSTANTLY left from there to the Plaza, which is totally false. They have a close example in Huancayo, they have a lot of initiative to encourage people to take tours. They should follow that line and not sit and wait or watch from the door as tourists pass and leave. (Original) Esperan sentados dentro de su oficina a que uno se acerque a preguntar. No son proactivos, parece que prefieren la virtualidad porque el WhatsApp sí responden rápido, aunque tampoco informan bien.

Tienen un ejemplo cercano en Huancayo, ellos tienen mucha iniciativa para animar a la gente a tomar tours. Deberían seguir esa línea y no esperar sentados o mirar desde la puerta cómo los turistas pasan y se van.

Nice museum for a short visit. Guides are young military from peruviam armee.

An interesting museum if you are interested in military things. It costs 5 soles to enter as of June 2025. There is no tour and all written explanations are in Spanish. If you don't understand Spanish, use Google translate.

Unfortunately the building and exhibits are in dire need of conservation. There are numerous canvases from the Viceroyal period that are very nearly beyond hope of restoration.

museum of heroe

Very good

Xvre

Ok

I've seen better arch de triumphs but it's ok

I really like it the amazed view

Ideal

Very representative free no need tickets

Nice building on the main road

Excellent nice place

Normal

As of June 2025, the cost of admission is 5 soles. I was expecting to be there about half an hour but I was actually there for 2 hours. I spent the first hour by myself looking at the exhibits. They have a QR code on the wall that you can use to listen to descriptions in English. They also have written translations on most exhibits. The person in charge gave us approximately 45 minutes of explanation by voice in Spanish. Try to read about what happened during this period in Peru's history and you will enjoy the museum more.

Very impressive. I remember the name lightened parh from the past, but never realized what has really happened. This place mainly tells the story of all familymembers, still searching.for their relatives.

Small but very moving museum, dedicated to the human toll of the conflict between the Shining Path and state armed forces and the violence and brutality of each side. Most but not all of the information is translated in English so I recommend the audio guide (available for free via a QR code at the entrance) for more context on the origins of the conflict, and the photos/objects on display.

Important museum in Ayacucho, revisiting the recent history of the region with its consequences. Highly recommended for all those interested in Peruvian history and social/political complexity.

A small museum with personal accounts of victims of the violence of the 80s and 90s. Includes victims of both the SP and government. Small and totally in Spanish but worth seeing. LUM in Lima is a bigger, stronger account

Some really interesting facts, it shows how badly both the Sendero Luminoso and the Peruvian army treated the population back then. It could be a bit more elucidating and a bit more well explained for someone who's new to the subject. I still liked it though.

It was very interesting but i highly reccomend you read about the situation beforehand on the internet for context. Maybe it's because of my limited spanish but it was kind of confusing. It's mostly anecdotes and personal stories, but it doesn't explain how it happened, or how it resolved. Again, interesting, but hard to follow unless you're peruvian and learned about it growing up.

It was peaceful sitting in the park area enjoying the area

Ayacucho is a hidden gem that amazes you with culture and amazing food. I spent a week enjoying the surrounding tours and spending time in nature...exploring caves and waterfalls...definitely a wonderful adventure. Only one hour away from Lima by plane.

Lovely central plaza, nice shops around

Nice plaza with a lot of restaurants and cafés

Super clean, it has a great view of the mountains and an old traditional style. Just by visiting the place you can see the heart of Ayacucho.

Beautiful place, many parades and shopping

Great beautiful plaza and beautiful city, well worth a visit. Charming architecture. Nice place to enjoy.

Linda

(Translated by Google) Impressive TOUR full of mysticism, religiosity, culture and art. One of the best things you can do within the circuit of the main square and within the churches of Ayacucho. Advice: go to the secretary's office and ask for César (great guide). The journey will cost your collaboration but what you learn inside is worth a lot. (Original) Impresionante TOUR lleno de misticismo, religiosidad, cultura y arte. De lo mejor que se puede recorrer dentro del circuito de la plaza mayor y dentro de las iglesias de Ayacucho.

Sometimes the gate is open, so take a quick look inside and admire it. Pizarro's right hand is also buried here. (Original) Errichtet ab 1548 von der dominikanischen Orden, kombiniert es neomudéjar- und neugotische Elemente mit einer barocken Innenausstattung.

(Translated by Google) The Ayacucho Cathedral (also known as the Cathedral Basilica of Saint Mary) is the principal Baroque cathedral in the city of the same name. It is owned by the Catholic Church and was declared a National Historical and Cultural Heritage of Peru in 1972. [1] [2] Located in the Plaza de Armas, its construction began in 1632 and was completed in 1672. It is the largest cathedral in the country, as it is the main temple. The details of its construction are countless, and one particularly curious one is the presence of two small figures hidden at the top of the bell of the left tower, as if observing the city from above. Overall, the building has three naves, 18 columns supporting eight arches, 16 high vaults, 22 windows, and a beautiful triangular dome with an octagonal base. The architectural style of the façade is Seismicist Baroque. It is the only temple in the city that has three entrance doors on the front, where there are two statues representing the apostles Saint Peter and Saint Paul. (Original) La Catedral de Ayacucho (también conocida como Catedral basílica de Santa María) es la principal catedral barroca en la ciudad homónima. Está bajo propiedad de la Iglesia católica, y fue declarada como Patrimonio Histórico Cultural de la Nación del Perú en 1972.[1]​[2]​ Ubicada en la Plaza de Armas. Su construcción se inició en 1632 y concluyó en 1672. Es la más grande por ser el templo principal. Los detalles en su construcción son innumerables y uno particularmente curioso es la presencia de dos pequeños personajes ocultos en la parte superior de la campana de la torre izquierda, como si observaran la ciudad desde lo alto. En términos generales, la edificación tiene 3 naves, 18 columnas que sostienen 8 arcos, 16 bóvedas altas, 22 ventanas y una hermosa cúpula triangular de base octogonal. El estilo arquitectónico de la fachada es Barroco Seiscentista. Es el único templo en la ciudad que tiene 3 puertas de ingreso en el frontis, donde precisamente se encuentran dos estatuas que representan a los apóstoles San Pedro y San Pablo.

(Translated by Google) The imposing Cathedral of Ayacucho, also known as the Basilica Catedral de Santa María, is an outstanding example of colonial architecture and stands directly on the Plaza Mayor – a must-see for art and culture enthusiasts. It was built between 1632 and 1672 by royal decree of the Spanish King Felipe III and declared a national cultural heritage site in 1972. The facade is deliberately simple, but the interior reveals an overwhelming wealth of detail: ten retablos decorated with gold leaf, including the famous retablos of the Virgen de Socos, the Señor de Burgos, and the Niño Llorón. (Original) Die imposante Kathedrale von Ayacucho, auch bekannt als Basílica Catedral de Santa María, ist ein herausragendes Beispiel kolonialer Architektur und thront direkt an der Plaza Mayor – ein Muss für kunst‑ und kulturbegeisterte Besucher. Sie wurde zwischen 1632 und 1672 nach königlichem Dekret des spanischen Königs Felipe III erbaut und 1972 zum nationalen Kulturerbe erklärt. Die Fassade wirkt bewusst schlicht, doch im Inneren entfaltet sich ein überwältigender Reichtum an Details: zehn mit Blattgold verzierte Retablos, darunter die berühmten Retablos der Virgen de Socos, des Señor de Burgos und des Niño Llorón .

This mirador really is a wonderful destination and is so close to Ayacucho's city center! We went early in the morning on a weekday and fortunately (in our minds) all of the tourist attractions (carnival/restaurant/event space) were closed and we basically had the place to ourselves. If you plan to walk, you definitely should prepare to go straight up various flights of stairs. There are roads along the way if you want to break up your ascent and go sideways for a bit. Also, you may want to bring something to protect you from the wind; when we went, there wasn't a cloud in the sky but it was definitely chilly. A few things that I liked were that it wasn't overly religious like a lot of other overlooks, and there were various different places to take pictures, very photo-friendly. I also appreciated that it was free!

Not special, but there were a lot of clouds.

Nice walk up. Also good by taxi. Great view over Ayacucho with a lot of bars and restaurants.

Lacks of decent loos and adequate parking site. View is by far spectacular and surrounding atmosphere inmerse you into romanticism, too. Dishes offers are various and comparatively its higher prices are not proportional to quality. Souvenirs to be acquired only by cash.

Good food and great seeing. I spent good moments there. I recommend it to you..

Great view to the city .

Nice views.

Beautiful and interesting place, where you can find the born of the ayacucho 's retablo. It's a little museum but friendly like a place. The ticket costs 4 soles adults and 2 soles kids. I suggest to visit it

Beautiful place which tells the story of one of the first "maestro de los retablos". It takes you through his life and successes making his art and getting recognized and rewarded for his work. They also have retablos and other pieces of souvenirs / artwork from the region for sale. Relatively small (a tour takes about 30 minutes) but very colorful. Staff is very friendly and competent. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend museum if you want to know about Retablo Ayacuchano. You can buy some beautiful and inexpensive souvenirs.

Nice place to visit and learn more about the Peru culture

Great information about the humble beginnings of the art. One of the great master

Good experience ,good one

Lovely, cozy, tender.

Really interesting place. The museum is small but full of history, with ancient artifacts and great info. The ruins nearby make the visit even better. A must if you’re in Ayacucho and want to learn about Peru’s pre-Inca past and the Wari culture.

Very interesting. Only 2% of this site is revealed. Another 1600 acres to be discovered. Wari was the most impotant pre-inca town in the Andes and capital city in the period -500-c-1500

Nice small museum with adjacent archaeological site of the pre-Incan civilization of the Wari. Not many information signs, but cheap guides available

A very overlooked historical site of pre Incan culture. A must see if you are visiting the Ayacucho region. Cheap entry fee.

Wari community existed 500 to 1100 AC before Inca. All houses were built underground. Peruvian archeologists are working on it funded from the income obtained from Inca Trail. There is a large field of cactus around Wari where locals come to harvest Tuna fruits for sale.

Very interesting archaeological ruins. They are unusual due to the number of underground rooms.

This was a highlight of the trip. We rented a small van in Ayacucho less than 30USD per day. And we came to this archeological site, very nice, entrance fee was 3soles, less than 1USD. Wari was one the largest Pre inca culture, this site is still on work. but there's plenty to see. It was a nice surprise. There's also a very well conserved mummified lady on their museum. That was very awesome to see. They have very clean restroom services as well. Worth to stop by.
