About this work

Panoramic view of the Lake Umayo and the Sillustani burial ground (see the 2 towers on the right). Sillustani is a pre-Incan cemetery with tombs (chullpas) built above ground in tower-like structures housing the remains of nobles. The place was built by the Aymara, that were conquered by the Inca in the 15th century.
