Tupe Village (Yauyos, Lima – Peru)
Tupe is one of the most unique and culturally preserved villages in Peru. Located in the province of Yauyos, about 2,800–2,830 meters above sea level, it sits deep in the Andes, relatively close to Lima but historically very isolated.
⸻
📍 Location & Access
* Region: Lima (province of Yauyos)
* Communities: Tupe and Aiza
* Access: Road to Catahuasi + hike (traditionally several hours walking)
* Landscape: Rugged mountains, deep valleys, and high Andean scenery
This isolation is exactly why Tupe has preserved its traditions so strongly.
⸻
🏛️ History & Origins
Tupe is part of the ancient Yauyos culture, one of the oldest pre-Columbian groups in the central Andes (over 3,000 years old).
* Later influenced by the Wari culture (before the Incas)
* Considered one of the last living remnants of Wari-related traditions
* Not fully assimilated by Inca or Spanish systems, which helped preserve its identity
