Argentina is an ideal destination for those who travel without a hurry or a fixed schedule, especially in motorhomes, as there are dozens of interesting places to see or revisit along the way, passing through at least four provinces.
There are more than 100 stone structures that exist and are preserved at the "Argentine Machu Picchu," which can be visited. This refers to a place called "El Shincal de Quimivil" in Catamarca, a true architectural gem not to be missed.
The archaeological site is located in the locality of Londres, in the southern Hualfín valley, and was built by the Incas between 1471 and 1536 on the Quimivil mountain range. The structures are considered one of the best Inca installations in the country, with over 100 stone spaces built on a territory of more than 30 hectares. Since 1997, they have been part of the National Historical Heritage, and currently, thousands of tourists visit the site in the district of Belén.
To visit the "Argentine Machu Picchu," tourists can enjoy its history and natural surroundings by coordinating visits through the "El Shincal De Quimivil Londres" Facebook page. The site offers attractions such as the Shincal Museum and the archaeological complex itself. It is open from Monday to Sunday, with tours lasting an hour and a half. This summer, for tourists who prefer to avoid crowds but are passionate about history and culture, Catamarca can be a great destination to visit, enjoy, and continue their journey.
