The Inca Trail

The Past of the Andes

The exhibition focuses particularly on two moments in the pre-Columbian history of the Andes: a section devoted to Inca culture with many outstanding objects that testify to the importance of Inca civilisation; whilst another section narrates the history of the Andes through exhibits from the earlier, pre-Inca cultures that settled in this mountain region.
