Ayacucho is a symbol of Peru. Its mix of impressive geography, ancestral traditions and rich culture are an expression of Peru’s past and present. It was in this privileged region of the Peruvian Highlands where the Wari culture flourished, where a link was established between Lima and Cuzco during the Viceroyalty period, and where the definitive battle for Peruvian independence took place. Ayacucho was also the epicenter of a terrible conflict that injured the entire country, the wounds of which have yet to be healed.
