Description

A journey through Inca history and Catamarca's artisan tradition One of the most complete excursions in Catamarca is the tour to Belén, Londres, and the Ruins of the Shincal de Quimivil. A day trip from San Fernando del Valle de Catamarca that combines culture, archaeology, and unforgettable landscapes. Belén: the birthplace of the poncho The first stop is Belén, known as the Cradle of the Poncho and one of Argentina's main textile centers. There, you can visit craft workshops where fabrics are made with sheep, llama, and vicuña wool, using ancestral techniques that reflect the cultural identity of Catamarca tourism. Londres: colonial history and architecture Then we'll visit London, one of the oldest cities in the country, founded in 1558. Its quiet streets, adobe churches, and natural surroundings make it an ideal place to connect with the history and serenity of the Catamarca valleys. The Shincal de Quimivil: a legacy of the Inca Empire The tour ends at the majestic Shincal Ruins, one of the most important archaeological sites in Argentina, declared a National Historic Monument. It was an administrative and ceremonial center of the Inca Empire, with remains of squares, stairways, enclosures, and temples that still retain their ancestral energy. The visit includes guided walks around the site and the chance to climb the sacred hill, from where you get an impressive panoramic view of the valley.
