【en】Citadel of Peñico, Peru

Penico, a 3,500-year-old fortified city, is now open to the public after 8 years of research. It may have been built by immigrants after the collapse of Carral, and a variety of remains remain, including temples and wall paintings. Following the already famous aerial city “Machu Picchu,” this is a valuable site where visitors can experience the breath of a lost ancient civilization.
