It served as the last stronghold of the Incan Empire after the Spanish conquest.

The city holds significant cultural importance for the Quechua people, descendants of the Incas.

Today, Vilcabamba is a popular tourist destination, known for its hiking trails and archaeological sites.

Despite its historical significance, Vilcabamba was only rediscovered in 1911.
