Visit Awe-Inspiring Funerary Towers
Massive towers of granite dot the altiplano around Sillustani ( Click here ) , where various
pre-Columbian civilizations built massive cylindrical tombs in which entire family groups
were interred. Known as chullpas, some of them reached a staggering height of 12m. In a
country chock-full of unusual sights, this is bound to be somewhere near the top of the list.
