• Huanuco Pampa - Situated at an altitude of 3,625 metres (11,893 ft) above sea level, Wanuku Pampa is perched on a plateau that commands a view of the Vizcarra River.
  This ancient Inca hub was constructed in accordance with what is termed the Architecture of Power. This architectural philosophy involves crafting edifices and spaces to project and amplify the aura of the empire’s authority. In Wanuku Pampa, the vast rectangular plaza spans 550m by 350m, covering an expanse of over 19 hectares (47 acres).

The City spans roughly 2 km2, allowing it to be neatly segmented into 12 distinct sections.

A man-made road traverses the city, part of a network that stretches across multiple countries, not confined to Peru alone.

Wanuku Pampa, also referred to as Wanuku Marka, Huánuco Pampa, Huánuco Viejo, and Huánuco Marca, is a historical site in Peru, specifically in the Huánuco Region, Dos de Mayo Province, within the La Unión District. Strategically located over a flat plain by the Urqumayu or Vizcarra River, in the north-central Andes, Wanuku Pampa served as one of the numerous administrative hubs along the upland Inca road stretching from Cusco to Quito. This area governed at least five, possibly even more, indigenous ethnic groups. Situated on a core trade path, the city is perched atop a plateau encircled by gorges on all sides, facilitating straightforward protection of the metropolis. In the 1530s, the city’s downfall came when Pedro de Alvarado besieged and torched it.
