Pukara De Quitor

in #life • 5 years ago

Today we went on a trek through the Cordillera de Sal to visit some of the archaeological sites here.


The main site we were interested in was Pukara de Quitor - an ancient fort over 700 years old. These fortresses were built by the atacameños to protect themselves from different invaders who wanted to take over their land.

Visiting this site was akin to stepping back in time

The fort is strategically placed overlooking San Pedro de Atacama
