Archaeological Sites in Bolivia

El Fuerte de Samaipata is a Pre-Columbian archaeological and UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the eastern foothills of the Bolivian Andes. It is unique as it encompasses buildings of three cultures: Chanè, Inca, and Spanish.

The Llanos de Moxos, or Beni Savanna, located in the Beni Department of northern Bolivia, contains extensive remains of pre-Columbian agricultural societies that were spread throughout the tropical savanna region. The remains testify to a well-organized and numerous indigenous people.

The city of Tiwanaku was the capital of a powerful pre-Hispanic empire that dominated a large area of the southern Andes and beyond. Its monumental remains testify to the cultural and political significance of this civilization which is distinct from any of the other pre-Hispanic empires of the Americas.
