Museo de Coca
Bedste tid at besøge
Visit in the morning right after opening at 9:00, when the underground halls have the fewest people and the guides have plenty of time for individual commentary.
Budgettips
The entrance fee is around 20 soles per person, with discounts for students and children. The price also includes coca tea at the end of the tour, so you don't have to buy it separately.
Anbefalet til
Lovers of Andean cultural history, Travelers curious about traditional rituals, Anthropology students, Visitors acclimatizing to the altitude

Om
Hurtige fakta: Coca-blade har spillet en vigtig rolle i Andeskulturen i tusinder af år ud over deres kontroversielle brug. Museet viser over 400 artefakter, der illustrerer cocaens åndelige og medicinske betydning.
Højdepunkter: Besøgende kan opleve en traditionel coca-blad ceremoni udført af lokale shamaner i et genopbygget andesk ceremonirum, en praksis sjældent vist til udlændinge. Museet præsenterer også detaljerede botaniske udstillinger, der sammenligner coca-blade med andre planter og fremhæver subtile forskelle.
Insidertips
- Bring a camera, but use the flash sparingly in the underground section, as the exhibits must not be disturbed by harsh light.
- Book a guided tour; the explanation about the ritual use of coca will take you much deeper than a self-guided walk.
- Save the coca tea for the very end; it will help you acclimatize to the altitude before continuing your journey.
- The security check at the entrance is quick, but leave your backpacks in the storage area at the entrance, as they would get in your way underground.
