Taqrachullu, Inca archaeological site in Suykutambo District, Peru.

The Taqrachullu archaeological complex stands at 3,800 meters above sea level, near the confluence of two rivers in the Cusco Region.

The National Cultural Heritage site of Taqrachullu contains multiple structures that served administrative and ceremonial functions during the Inca Empire period.

The name Taqrachullu derives from Quechua language elements, where t'akra refers to uncultivated land and chullu indicates a spur between rivers.

Visitors need permission from local authorities to explore the archaeological site, which requires guidance from approved personnel for preservation purposes.

The strategic position of Taqrachullu near the Apurimac River allowed the Inca to monitor and control movement through this elevated mountain region.
