Pachacamac used to be a sacred and ceremonial place established roughly in the beginning of the Christian era, where thousands of pilgrims have come with their offerings to consult the oracle of Pachacamac that is believed to watch the past, the future and the destiny. Today, the site is located 40 kilometres outside of Lima, in the valley of the Lurín River. It lies adjacent to the Pan American highway, at the coast of the Pacific Ocean.
"Pachacamac" is named after the Quechua word for "Creator of the World". The most iconic temples at the ancient Inca sanctuary are Templo Viejo and Templo Pintado. It is possible to see the tombs of the Wari Empire (500 AD - 1200 AD) in the Temple area of Pachacamac.
