Sillar-route van een halve dag in Arequipa





Beschrijving
De hardstenen route loopt door het binnenland van de steengroeven, dezelfde die de bezoeker naar de oorsprong en het begrip brengen van hoe het historische centrum van Arequipa, door UNESCO uitgeroepen tot werelderfgoed, is ontstaan. Bij een bezoek aan de steengroeven die in bedrijf zijn, kunt u het voorouderlijke proces van het winnen van blokken en het uitsnijden van de hardsteen, uitgevoerd door de hand van de mens, live observeren.

Reisroute
09:00 uur We beginnen onze tour vanuit het historische centrum op weg naar de steengroeven. Onderweg leren we met onze professionele gids details over de constructies in de stad op basis van vulkanisch gesteente (Sillar). Onderweg is onze eerste stop bij het Volcano Viewpoint, waar we de 3 vulkanen kunnen waarderen die de stad omringen, zoals: MISTI, CHACHANI en PICHU PICHU, daar kunnen we spectaculaire panoramische foto's maken.
We vervolgen de route richting de steengroeven; de plaats waar de witte stad is ontstaan, zullen we de Sillar-steengroeven binnengaan waar we de immense kliffen zullen zien die door de hand van de mens zijn bewerkt. Na een uitleg door de gids en enkele prachtige foto's, zullen we een ervaringsgerichte tijd hebben om deze eigenaardige karakters te delen en ermee om te gaan, de voorouderlijke techniek van steenextractie die nog steeds bewaard is gebleven van de koloniale tijd tot het heden.
We vervolgen onze tour en gaan aan boord van het transport om de MAAGDELIJKE STEENGROEVE VAN CULEBRILLAS te bezoeken, waar we een fascinerende wandeling van 20 minuten zullen maken. Binnen culebrillas zullen we een mysterieuze en unieke omgeving voelen waar we de aanwezigheid van rotstekeningen kunnen zien die ons naar het leven en de overtuigingen van de oude mens zullen brengen, aangezien dit een heilige plaats is met roze muren, dan zullen we de aanwezigheid van apacheta's zien waar hun symboliek wordt bekend gemaakt en ze krijgen ook de ervaring om hun apacheta in elkaar te zetten.

I visited the Ruta del Sillar for my birthday and it was one of the best experiences. Good natural landscapes that combine with history, art and tradition. In addition, the guide did a great job explaining every detail and the tour was very punctual in picking me up at the hotel.
Agradecemos tu opinión, nos motiva a seguir mejorando, deseamos que su visita en Arequipa haya sido de las mejores experiencias 😊 Esperamos que puedan volver pronto y que nos recomienden con sus amigos o familiares 😃
Good but rushed and too short. The tour wasted almost an hour picking people up within a block or two of the main square. We were then very rushed in the Sillas quarry and didn't have a chance to see everything. It would be better to have fewer pick up points and spend most than 30 minutes at the quarry. The hike was really neat - would have been great to hike more of the canyon!

The visit to the Sillar quarry was fascinating. Plenty of sillar sculptures to look at and take photos with. Too many to fit into the 45 minutes allocated. There is another section with more sculptures for a small additional fee. Toilets are mainly at the beginning. Closed toe shoes are advised. The tour to the canyon with the petroglyphs was a little disappointing. You slowly walk through the canyon following lots of other tourists. At the very end the petroglyphs are very faint and hard to get close to because of everyone filling the space. The walk out is quite steep, so not recommended for those who struggle to climb up steep and uneven slopes. Overall it was good value for money.

We visited La ruta del sillar with Oscar Trips Peru. The tour took 4 hours visiting very interesting places with magnificent views. The walks were very manageable and fun. Our guide, Alexandra, was very professional and helpful and provided a wealth of information about the area, the quarry and the canyon. Don Hernan, the driver, made us feel safe during the whole route. Totally recommend this tour.

The sillar stone quarry was wonderful, but not enough time to wander throughout the whole thing and relax and take pictures. I wish they had skipped that time at the mirador at the beginning for pictures. I never heard that that was part of the tour in the first place, but in the end, I was tired and so happy. The stone quarry filled my soul. There's also a truck through a tiny narrow canyon to see petroglyphs from the days of the Huari culture. It was cool, but do not come on this wearing sandals or flip-flops. You will want solid shoes.
