Cachicata is a small remote town that houses the Inca Quarry in its territory. This place was destined for the carving of red granite blocks that would later serve for the construction of temples or palaces of the Inca Empire.

Many of the archaeological sites near this place were built with these materials. This site is a witness to the advanced technology that the Incas used. In addition, it shows the work left half-finished at the arrival of the invaders.
