This excursion will take us to the Marcahuasi Plateau on the Andean Sierra that is world-known for its frequent UFO sightings. Also on the plateau, there are dozens of different rocks in various different shapes and sizes. There is no explanation as to their origin. The plateau is divided in two circuits: the Humanity Circuit, with rocks in the shapes of human beings (including an astronaut and a pilot driving a plane), and the Treasure Circuit, with rocks in the shapes of animals and temples. Shapes of animals include a lizard, a turtle, and an elephant, and temples include an altar and an amphitheater. The plateau and the Cachu Cachu Lake are also known for their healing powers.
