The complex is composed of three important archaeological groups: the Aqueduct, the Sanctuary and the Caves and Shelters. The aqueduct is an ingenious work of hydraulic engineering that belongs to the initial period of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fertur-travel.com\/cajamarca-info\/cajamarca-highlights\/\"><strong>Cajamarca<\/strong><\/a> culture (1000BC). The five kilometer long canal takes water from the Atlantic watershed and redirects it to the Pacific side of the continental divide. The Sanctuary is a rocky structure with the appearance of a gigantic human head. It features engravings similar to those found on the aqueduct, and similar carvings can be found in the caves and stone monoliths that litter the valley.<\/p>\n<p>Book your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fertur-travel.com\/cajamarca-tours\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cajamarca Tours today<\/a> with Fertur!<\/p>\n<table border=\"1\" width=\"450\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Location Access<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<table border=\"1\" width=\"99%\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"12%\">Province:<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"21%\">Cajamarca<\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"3\" width=\"67%\">\n<table border=\"1\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<td>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Distance:<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<div>Time:<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">20 kilometers from<br \/>the city of<br \/>Cajamarca<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">45 minutes from<br \/>Cajamarca<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">A path winds 15<br \/>kilometers across<br \/>complex in a<br \/>horseshoe shape<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">4 hours on foot to<br \/>cross the complex<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">District:<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">Cajamarca<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">Locality<br \/>Reference:<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">On the slopes of<br \/>Cumbe Peak (3400<br \/>meters above sea<br \/>level)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Site Details<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<table border=\"1\" width=\"99%\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"40%\">\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Entrance Fee:<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"19%\">\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Opening Hours:<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"41%\">\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Museum &amp; Other Services:<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">Adults S\/.4.50,<br \/>Children and<br \/>students<br \/>S\/.2.00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">Monday to Sunday<br \/>9:00 &#8211; 17:00<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">Interpretation hall,<br \/>bathrooms<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#d9edf7\">You Might Also Like: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fertur-travel.com\/cajamarca-tours\/cajamarca-tour-3-days-2-nights\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.fertur-travel.com\/cajamarca-tours\/cajamarca-tour-3-days-2-nights\/\">Cajamarca 3 Days 2 Nights<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cumbemayo offers a site of singular beauty that reveals a mixture of human ingenuity and the power of water to change the landscape.
