Wilca, Amazonas, Archaeological site in Utcubamba Province, Peru.

Located in the Amazonas Region near the Comboca ravine, Wilca contains numerous circular structures built with carefully arranged stone slabs reaching four meters high.

The archaeological site dates back to pre-Columbian times, offering insights into the construction methods and architectural practices of ancient Peruvian civilizations.

Situated at the intersection of Aymara and Quechua territories, Wilca represents a significant testament to the indigenous engineering capabilities in the Amazonas region.

Visitors need to arrange transportation through local guides and bring necessary supplies, as the remote location lacks standard tourist facilities or regular access routes.

The circular stone structures of Wilca maintain their original form despite centuries of exposure to the elements in this mountainous environment.
