Pickup and transfer from your hotel to Chucuito, a place visited by dancers and romantic couples. Due to its location, it offers a beautiful view of Lake Titicaca.
The first stop in Chucuito is the Temple of Fertility. It is believed that the Inca Uyo was a temple dedicated to fertility, where nature was thanked for the miracle of human reproduction and Pachamama, Mother Earth, was honored.
The Inka Uyo is located in the Royal Treasure City, where some people come for various reasons. Then, we will visit the Church of Chucuito, whose side entrance shows the beauty of its construction with columns and arches. Some researchers consider it one of the best examples of colonial Renaissance architecture in the region. We will also see the Solar Clock in the center of the main square, an element of great importance.
A detail that distinguishes this town is the Huamanga Stone Clock, rectangular in shape, with a central needle that marks the hours as the sun advances. Finally, we will go to a fish farm.
Afterwards, we will return to the city of Puno and transfer you back to your hotel.
Inca Uyo or known as the Temple of Fertility, initially had the purpose of being a usnho , a place for the worship of Mother Earth and her fertility, in which the crops that the Inca settlers had were worshiped. .
The temple has an area of 200 square meters and is surrounded by a wall of stones that are finely carved. Inside you will see a stone wall, but smaller; The buildings, together with the exterior ones, helped the settler determine the precise moments for carrying out agricultural production.
Some time later it was considered a fertilization temple that helps several women become mothers through a ritual that they practice and this decides whether they will be mothers in the future or not as well.
It may seem like a story you don’t believe, but in reality it has been shown that women became pregnant some time later and because of them they go to the place every year to thank the Inca deities, the Apus, for having made the miracle of being a mother possible.
