    Excellent place near to Cuenca city (90min), you can go there and go back to the city the same day.

    Smaller than I imagined. But worth the trip. I have been twice and will return.

    Neat place to get an hour long tor through. There are bilingual guides and they all seemed very knowledgeable about the area and the lengthy history of it. This area is filled with beautiful views, ancient structures and nearby shops and restaurants.

    Impressive information and the tour guide we had spoke very good English. Spoke very passionate about his heritage and the culture. Very professional.
    I definitely recommend you to go to this place. And I hope you get the same tour guide we had.

    Excellent place to learn about history; the place is well taken care of, the price for the entrance is very accessible and the route shows pieces well preserved and it has a second route to observe very interesting monuments.

    Guide helped explain the overlapping presence of the Canari and Inca at this location. If or had the complexity and setting of Machu Picchu I would rate it higher.

    Great place to get a view of the history of the indigenous peoples of Ecuador. A good guide is essential.

    Ingapirca, the largest known Inca ruins in Ecuador with the Temple of the Sun to the right. If you are lucky with the weather, the views are very nice.

    It's the largest Incan site in Ecuador. But if you've been to Machu Picchu, you can skip this.

    See these with a guide. There is so much more than is on the plaques. Nice view into Inca resourcefulness and reuse of a native Ecuadorian holy place. Well worth the trip.

    This is a majestic place to go visit. Aside from the ruirnas de ingapirca the rode to get up here and the view is incredible. It's a must see place. No pollution or stress. You feel in another world.

    Probably the most important archaeological site in Ecuador. Beautiful and well preserved. This site contains many treasures that speak to the relationship between the Canari and Inca peoples. The site has a great tour in multiple langauages and you will love the surrounding hiking areas if you are up to that.

    Nice ruins of a mix of inca and cañari cultures. One of the few standing remainings of the architecture of indigenous cultures prior to the colonial era. Facilities are nice. Guides are knowledgeable. Tons of opportinities for photos. Bring a rainproof jacket, it rains frequently.

    Historic Inca place where you can see real ruins of an ancient and sacred Inca site.Good spots for pictures. Panoramic view of landscapes. A place where you can also enjoy typical food and learn more about Ecuadorean traditions.

    Very beautiful and amazing! The guide was so nice and patient, explained so well and very kind hearted. He told us many things about the culture, medicine, plants, religion and life here, also helped us to find interesting drinks and food, showed us the short way to Cuenca. Was a very nice day!
