Cahuachi
Cahuachi was a ceremonial center, a sacred
destination of Nazca pilgrims between 100
and 500 AD. The ceremonies in the place included
the construction of temples using thousands
of conical or wedge adobe bricks. Each participating
community demonstrated their true belonging
to their religious community by singing, dancing
and banqueting, thus explaining why in Cahuachi
there is little garbage, while offerings abound
(pan flutes and musical drums, sacrificed
llamas and guinea pigs, fine textiles, human
burials and pottery representing deities).
Main cultural-urban center, built with great
urban sense. The ancient Nazca people built
their pyramidal temples by terracing the fossil
sand dunes. In the lowers parts, smaller architectural
mounds, streets and squares give the site
a general city aspect. Attached to this town
were also discovered (1980) a group of lines
traced on the floor in form of trapezes and
serpentines that embrace 1 square km. It is
located at 27 km (16.77 miles) to south of

South Highway until kilometer 539 and take

Planetarium Maria Reich
Venturing into boundaries of the world archae-astronomy,
the Nazca Lines show present Maria Reiche's
theory, and the connection she found between
the Nazca Lines and some astronomical events.
She theorized the lines were oriented towards
the places on the horizon where different
celestial objects appeared and disappeared.

Punta San Juan de Marcona Reserved
Area
Located in the coast area, to the west of
the Nazca city, it is an extraordinary marine
ecosystem of great biodiversity; it has a
little extension of 54 hectares and has the
biggest population of sea lions (seals) of
the Peru concentrates. The peninsula is characterized
by its abrupt cliffs 30 meters high that hinder
the access, from the high part, to the eighteen
beaches that are formed at level of the reef.
Besides the sea lions, in this Reserved Area
inhabits the biggest colony of penguins of
Humboldt (Spheniscus humboldtii) (it is considered
that concentrates more than 50% of the total
population of this species on the Peru), as
well as zarcillos (Larosterna inca) and the
three main species of dung birds (guaneras).
While the sea lions are located in the beaches

in the walls of the cliffs and the birds rest
and they nest in the sharp hillsides and in
the plateau that extends in their higher area
