Показать описание
Sacsayhuamán is an ancient walled complex located on the northern outskirts of the city of Cusco, Peru.

It was built by the Inca around the 13th century AD and served religious, military, and administrative purposes.

The complex is famous for its massive stones, some weighing over 100 tons, which are cut and fitted together perfectly without mortar.

Sacsayhuamán has three terraced walls in a zigzag formation totaling over 5,000 feet in length and up to 65 feet in height.

The complex was likely used for important ceremonies and military functions during the Inca Empire.

When the Spanish conquered the Inca, Sacsayhuamán continued to be an important stronghold until the siege and capture of Cusco in the 16th century.

Today Sacsayhuamán is a major tourist attraction where visitors can explore the ruins and admire the incredible masonry skills of the Inca.
