1. Ingapirca
To see some of the largest Incan ruins in the country, head on over to Ingapirca – one of history’s most advanced civilizations. This area dates back to the 15th century when the Incans merged with the native CaƱaris to create a bustling community. Some of the structures are still standing today, including the Temples of the Sun – an architectural masterpiece that still impresses modern day architects.
