This is a tiny temple, interupted by the spanish invasion so I wouldn't be bothered making a special trip just to see this, but a part of a tour (with a guide) its interesting in the overall scheme of Inca planning

To me the place just looked like a bunch of rocks. It did have an eerie feel, maybe because it was getting dark and because of the talk about mummies. It was interesting hearing the facts about the place, such as the worship of frogs. It wasn't a place I lingered too long. I was impressed by the view of... More

We walked here from Sacsayhuaman in about 10 minutes (after adjusting for wrong turns) (not marked and the tourist maps aren't detailed enough - have guide point you on the right road, then stay to the left at the split).

It's a pretty average site, because it's very very small, and way too crowded for 100 m2... Besides this, it's cool how the Inca's excavated a big piece of rock into some kind of sanctuary! Worth the visit, it'll only take you 10 minutes.

It is a rather small place, but I liked getting into the underground part of it, and, if you visit Sacsayhuaman, it takes next to no effort to go over there as well. It is included in Boleto Turistico anyway.

Small, but interesting, it is definitely worth a stop. I visited here, Puka Pukara and Tambomachay on one trip.

Do not miss the visit to this site when you go to Sacsayhuaman and Tambomachay, as it is also an important archeological place.
