Museo Litico Pukara, Puno Region, Peru
3.5 (86 reviews) Spent 1-2 hours Ranking #2 in Pucara Speciality Museums
Interesting museum
This museum is located close to the main square. It has some fascinating pieces recovered from the PUKARA site. It is quite modest but well set up. We really liked that the local school children were there learning about their history. It’s quite small but worth spending 20-30 minutes to se the artifacts

Ancient pre- Inca culture.
The Museo Litico Pukara is a very small but interesting museum if you are interested in Archaeology and the ancient cultures that lived there. There are a lot of objects to be seen here but I think to make this trip interesting one must have a good guide. Our guide Max from Cusela bus tours was excellent and knowledgeable. One of the most impressive things for me was the Chakana carved in stone( seven levels Andean Cross) the ornament of sacred places.Outside the museum there is a church and market. (would have liked to share a photograph.)
