Full Day Tour Ancient city of Coral

WE CUSTOMIZE VIRTUALLY ALL SERVICES AVAILABLE IN PERU

Caral is a large settlement in the Supe Valley, near Supe, Barranca province, Peru, some 200 km north of Lima. Caral is the most ancient city of the Americas, and is a well-studied site of the Caral civilization or Norte Chico civilization.
The urban complex is spread out over 150 acres (607,000 m²) and contains plazas and residential buildings.
Caral was a thriving metropolis at roughly the same time that Egypt’s great pyramids were being built.
The main pyramid (Spanish: Pirámide Mayor) covers an area nearly the size of four football fields and is 60 feet (18 m) tall.
Caral is the largest recorded site in the Andean region with dates older than 2000 BCE and appears to be the model for the urban design adopted by Andean civilizations that rose and fell over the span of four millennia. It is believed that Caral may answer questions about the origins of Andean civilizations and the development of the first cities.
