Message from Nicole Carter

Sillustani is a pre-Inca cemetery located near Lake Umayo in Peru. It's basically a bunch of tower-like structures called chullpas where the Qulla people, who were probably conquered by the Inca Empire, buried their elite family members. These chullpas are pretty cool because they're above ground and have all these ancient vibes going on. Some got blown up by grave robbers, others were left unfinished, but overall, it's a fascinating spot to check out if you're into history and stuff.
