In addition to flying over the Nazca Lines we will visit Chauchilla. Chauchilla Necropolis is located at 45 min. from Nasca City , consisting of 13 graves that despite being outdoors can be seen mummies in perfect condition and many of them are remains of hair and even some skin . Conservation has been made possible in part thanks to the arid desert of Nasca, which is found in the Necropolis. It is itself, the only archaeological site in Peru where mummies can be seen in their original graves.

Chauchilla cemetery - Nazca
The Chauchilla cemetery is located approximately 28 km to the southeast of the city of Nazca. This archaeological zone has been plundered for many years by tomb raiders who stole gold, silver, textile and ceramic objects. The human remains inside the graves have been preserved to this day thanks to the climate in Nazca which has kept the skeletons in tact and mummified the bodies which still have long braids of hair and are surrounded by colorful pottery from many years ago. After visiting the Chauchilla cemetery we will return to Nazca to visit the pottery workshop where we will receive information about the development and evolution of Nazca polychrome pottery. Finally we will visit a place where goldminers are at work. There we will give you information on how gold is extracted from the rocks and what techniques are used for this process. We will then return to your hotel.
