This complex is the most important archaeological center in the Urubamba Valley, after Ollantaytambo and Pisac. The ruins are impressive, although the conservation of the site is lower than that of Ollantaytambo or Pisac, because they are older.
But unlike the aforementioned places Huchuy Qosqo has a peculiar architecture: the buildings have been built on bases of polished stone of fine finish, with clay plaster (they are the best preserved parts) and the highest floors are made of adobe.
