Discover the Mummies in Their Original Tombs
Your journey begins with convenient pick-up from your hotel/hostel, transporting you to the Chauchilla Cemetery. This exceptional burial site stands out as one of the few in Peru that allows visitors to witness mummies in their authentic resting places. Additionally, you’ll encounter offerings, personal belongings, and even mummified animals, offering a unique glimpse into the customs of the Nazca people. The arid climate of the Nazca desert has played a crucial role in the preservation of these ancient remains, as rainfall is a rarity in these lands.
Unveil Nazca’s Burial Traditions and Pottery Workshops
The ancient inhabitants of Nazca followed the tradition of burying their deceased in a fetal position, always facing eastward, accompanied by their cherished possessions. This fascinating insight into their belief system mirrors the practices of many other civilizations that thrived in southern Peru. Following your exploration of the cemetery, the tour concludes with a visit to handcrafted ceramics workshops, where you can admire the intricate craftsmanship and acquire unique souvenirs.
