Quri Winchus, Archaeological site at the foot of Winchus mountain in Junín, Peru.
The archaeological complex extends over 2.2 hectares at an altitude of 3,850 meters, featuring remnants of circular buildings from the Wanka period.
The archaeological site dates back to the Late Intermediate Period between 1000 and 1460 AD, receiving National Cultural Heritage status in September 2001.
The location contains multiple pictographs that demonstrate the artistic traditions and social practices of pre-Hispanic communities in the central Andes region.
The site sits at the intersection of Cochas and Piñascochas rivers, accessible through local transportation services departing from major cities in Junín.
Surface fragments of pottery and stone artifacts remain visible across the terrain, though modern occupation has affected the preservation of architectural structures.
