O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Covering over 24 square kilometers, this ceremonial center features the largest adobe pyramid in the world by volume. More than 40 mounds rise from the desert floor, yet only a fraction of this sprawling complex has been excavated by archaeologists.
Istaknuto: Unlike the famous Nazca Lines etched into nearby hillsides, these pyramids were built entirely from thousands of conical adobe bricks made from hand-packed river mud. The site was a pilgrimage destination where ancient shamans led ceremonies involving chanting, dancing, and the consumption of San Pedro cactus under the blazing desert sun.
