Walking up you arrive to the sector kwon as the sun temple, it is constituted by 6 blocks of rock that were carved, one block have three protuberances on its face that like another that has only one probable those were images representing some pumas that were destroyed by Spaniard with the “idolatry extirpation” that was a system for killing andean people, notice that in the middle of all this wall there are some representation that have a special shape it looks like a bleacher because it has level, that could represent the live-way, because during your staying here on the earth you have to learn, improve, do as much as you can, and every time you do it is like you will be walking up by each letter.
Something that calls the attention is that in the middle of each block there are others that are smaller than the big blocks; those were put there to prevent to build another big block, because when there is an earthquake as those are big blocks by the tension and the weight they will broke the piece that is in the middle and as it is not a hard work to build that small piece it is not a big problem, but if there was not those smalls, make sure that to built the big blocks would be a hard work.
The blocks, and other rocks were taken from Kachi K’ata quarry, that is on the another mountain in front, from this distance they took them; first they had to broke the blocks, stone pieces from the outcrop rock, after carved this, not at all, after they throw the blocks until it get the lower and flat part, to cross the river they there is an idea that mention that they closed a half part of the river until have in the middle like an island, they crossed the river with the block an after they had to dry the another half part of the river and pass the block to the other border of the river, and that is how they could do it, but try to imagine, if you dry a half part of the river its base is wet (humid) and with the weight of the block this will get into the wet-earth and it could be a hard work to take this out, another theory mention that when they were in the front-border they tied the rock with ropes, after some workers pushed the rock to the river (no divided either dried) and the force of the river will push it floating and another group of workers who were on the front-border will pull it and they will have the rock some meters lower from they started, after they build a ramp, to take the rock block to the up, they used stone balls and logs at the base and on they put the block again tied, where some workers pushed and others pulled, that was how they cross them.
Near there are some buildings where possible inhabitants lived, going by the road that is guided by arrows painted, you will pass by a particular building that was the control for everybody who wanted to get into the main sector that was the temple of the sun, with doors and niches into, nobody could live there because it is not comfortable neither wide, after you pass and see the another valley, in front you there are some building that were maybe qolqas, because they are on a wind part, and have wide windows and doors, walk down and you will arrive to a astronomical sector, here it is the face of a rock that was sculpted building 5 protuberances that were used during the solstices of June and December, when it is half-day and the sun in at the middle of the sky it illuminate all and the protuberance’s shade completes the holes that are at the base, in the down part there is a part which is carved in three levels that are related with the three andean worlds of the Inkas cosmovision, after walking you will pass by some baths that were sacred to purify the body before get into one of the sacred places that exist there, along the street there is a ceremonial rock like that in Machu Pijchu, that has also an altar, next to this there is a rock formation that probable has the shape of a condor with some altars where possible the villagers put their offers, near there are some buildings that possible were sacred rooms, because there is one construction that have three double jump doors, similar to the exist in Paqarectambu (it is located in the province of Paruro, known as the origin of the Inkas), walking back by the same road, and go by the left sector, and you will arrive to the sector called as the Ñusta’s bath, here there is an special carved rock that looks like to be three levels in all that have the shape of a Chacana, where according to local belief it says that during inka times used to come here the Ñustas (Inka princess) to try and see if they were virgins or not, it mention that one Ñusta had to pass her finger cutting the water way, if water got together to the rock-face she still was virgin, but if it did not, if it continued its way like a waterfall she was not a virgin; that is just a local theory because if we see on the rock there are two white porous lines, that when someone cross the finger the run-water will be less and oxygen or air will get into those porous lines (this is the first theory), after, the channel that brings water to this small tub is not right (straight, rectum) checking when water comes it hits the front side and the velocity of water changes to be “0” after the water will go around the tub with “0” velocity will continue and when water goes and happens the first theory the water will get together to the rock-face, and that is the theory of how it works, this sector was a sacred because the same architecture is well designed, going along the way you will arrive to the sacred plaza that has niches where were put into mommies during sacred or ceremonial activities, near there is a building known as the temple of the water where there are two double jump windows and a main door ,also into there are some niches where probable put there some idols during ceremonial activities, also there is a natural outcrop that was carved in order to serve as a ceremonial carved rock.
