WHAT WILL I SEE?
Enjoy a sightseeing tour of living culture and rich history. Over the course of decades, stonemasons have shaped this volcanic tuff canyon, extracting and carving the material and becoming the architects of the construction and reconstruction of the White City.
The tour highlights the importance of this site, explaining why it was declared a National Cultural Heritage Site and is even considered a living culture of Arequipa.
For this very reason, Arequipa was designated a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site in 2001.
