21 km / 13 miles northeast of Andahuaylas (30 minutes by car), you find LakePacucha and from there you need to walk 2 km more (1 miles) (30 minutes) to reach the archeological site.
The complex covers some 10 hectares and is located above 3200 masl (10.496 fasl). The constructions originally belonged to the Chanca culture (600 A.D. 900 A.D.) but were later occupied by the Incas. They are pyramid-shaped and surrounded by walls and terraces that end in platforms with wide-open spaces. Judging by the location and the form of the central pyramid and by the strategic view towards LakePacucha, religious activities could have taken place in Sondor.
