CULTURE TIWANAKU

SPIRITUAL AND POLITICAL CENTRE OF THE

TIWANAKU CULTURE
The city of Tiwanaku, capital of a powerful pre-Hispanic empire that
dominated a large area of the southern Andes and beyond, reached its
apogee between 500 and 900 AD. Its monumental remains testify to the
cultural and political significance of this civilisation, which is distinct from
any of the other pre-Hispanic empires of the Americas

ARCHAEOLOGY AND TOURISM IN TIWANAKU

THE ENIGMATIC RUINS OF TIAHUANACO

Much

has

been

written

and

speculated
about Tiwanaku,
an
ancient pre-Hispanic civilization
whose archaeological
reason
for visit

ruins are
and study

throughout the year.

This archaeological site arouses the passions of all who visit, from
professionals who perform detailed work, to the general public, who
intrigues us to know and learn about these ruins.
Some writers claim that the inhabitants of Tiahuanaco were giants and
others say they came from outer space.
There is certainly more scientific information that sheds theories about
what happened on this site, from its origin to its end, but a lack of
awareness and the ruins still contain many mysteries.

In a place that has so much cultural richness associated with a long period
of existence of almost 2500 years, we inevitably feel the energies that
transmit their monuments and monoliths, because important events
occurred there.
Its inhabitants left footprints, left messages through their symbols, they
showed us their artistic ability through its sculpture, its pottery, its
tissues. Their culture is great.
Historical records show the great interest raised the discovery of these
ruins, hundreds of years ago and in the last century.

THE RUINS OFFER YOU THE CHANCE TO UNDERSTAND THE

PRE-HISPANIC PAST.

THE INFORMATION YOU NEED FOR YOUR TRAVELING

It is a cute place to ride whose location is close to the city of La Paz,
in Bolivia, with very easy access, as you can see in these maps.

You can enjoy a nice walk in Tiwanaku throughout the year. However,
in winter season, which begins in June, yuo can get photographs with
radiant skies.

In Tiwanaku, in winter, the day and night sky, is very clear and clean,
except in June 21, which by the Aymara New Year festivities, the
archaeological site is filled with smoke from the many fires that
they are lit at the previous night.

If you want to, you can hire tour guides in the site so that they show
and explain you what you are seeing in the ruins.

It is a leisurely stroll from about 3 hours you will enjoy intensely.

The archaeological site is open year-round, although the rainy season

(November to March) reduces the number of visits.
