O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Pustinjski zrak savršeno je očuvao više od 100 drevnih mumija ovdje, od kojih neke još uvijek nose svoju izvornu pamučnu odjeću i pletenu kosu staru 1000 godina. Ovo nisu mumije umotane u egipatskom stilu: sjede u fetalnom položaju s podignutim koljenima, okrenute prema izlasku sunca kako su diktirale njihove kulture Wari i Ica-Nazca.
Istaknuto: Vidjet ćete mumije s dugom crnom kosom netaknutom, kožom razapetom preko kostiju i zubatim osmjesima izloženim otvorenom nebu kroz grobnice bez krovova. Za razliku od muzejskih izložaka iza stakla, možete prići izbliza ovim drevnim ostacima i vidjeti pažljive grobne priloge postavljene pokraj njih: keramičke posude, prinose hrane i tkane tekstilije koje su preživjele tisućljeće.
Insajderski savjeti
- Bring a bandana or face mask: the desert wind kicks up fine dust that gets everywhere, especially in the afternoon.
- The guided tour is worth the small extra fee: your guide will show you which tombs were looted versus intact ones and explain the burial positions.
- Wear closed-toe shoes with good grip, as you'll be walking on loose sand and uneven ground between tomb pits.
- Skip the midday visit from December to March when the sun is brutal and there's zero shade across the entire site.
