Chivay
Religious Building/Site/Shrine
Built in Mestizo-baroque style, this important 17th-century church, with its Latin cross and detached chapels, dominates one side of Yanque's Plaza de Armas. Its facade, which has been undergoing restoration, is one of the best in the Colca Valley, featuring Ashlar stone that is richly decorated in high relief.
