With the magnificent coincidence that their partners and friends in Peru dedicated to the same subject and are established in strategic places for ecotourism agree the idea and embark on the task of working together for the purpose of promoting culture, environmental protection and ecotourism where use craft used by the developer who acquired immigrant in the U.S. was always with the desire to return to the motherland after living 33 years outside was accumulating information and experience on boats acquiring them with proper effort of work performed in the U.S. and the ideas and experiences that were purchased under the vision of having served the tourist industry in Florida and California with tourist companies owned by his family always with the idea to promote Peru to the world, and under the Law # 28 182 Migration Incentives enacted February 24, 2004. The myth of the islands of San Pedro Cavillaca, a beautiful Inca princess, was coveted by all the Temples (gods) of the neighboring regions. The god Viracocha Cuniraya, a very powerful god that used to appear in the form of a beggar, one day became a hummingbird and deposited his own semen in a princess ate fruit. The princess became pregnant without knowing why and who. Months after the birth of her son forced a meeting of all the region huacas, to find out who the father was. Since no one answered his question, the princess leaves her child crawl to his father. The baby crawled into the arms of a beggar. On seeing your child Cavillaca loaded and ran without stopping to sink into the sea. Desperate, Viracocha Cuniraya removed his tattered clothes and dressed with elegance inspired, but it was useless. Nothing could do; Cavillaca and his son and islands had become.

Inclusion of islands as protected areas allow sustainable management By Fabiola Torres López From the South Pan-American Highway, Lima thousand sighted as the silhouette of a huge whale emerging from the sea. However, few know that these islands, located just two kilometers from the coast, beachfront San Pedro, have not only a story that is based on an Inca myth, but represent one of the most important refuges for marine life , especially the endangered Humboldt penguin. With favorable conditions of sea and wind, a team of journalists from this newspaper this week toured the islands Cavillaca Pachacámac or also called on an expedition Environmental Enterprise Group (GEA) and the Association of Fishermen San Pedro de Punta Hermosa. The objective was to assess the environmental situation and its tourism potential. That morning, half completed in three boats from the beach cove Silence, shy Humboldt penguins, submerged in a quiet sea, we got the first sign of its strong presence in the islands. The Natural Resources Institute (Inrena) recorded in last year's census 3490 Humboldt penguins in 21 localities of our coastline and 300 of them are located on the islands of Pachacamac, one of the largest colonies after Punta San Juan and San Juanito in Marcona (Ica). This species, despite pressure from overfishing, has grown by 40% in the last four years. While the boats were circling the islands, accompanied by playful guanayes flocks, gulls and tendrils, appeared before us a wonderful scene that reaffirmed the encouraging indicators Inrena: as if it were a white pechitos Cathedral, hundreds of penguins, some with their foals rested in a cave that was illuminated by a beam of light that entered through a natural opening. ECOTOURISM AND HISTORY The inclusion of the 34 islands and guano points in the National System of Protected Natural Areas by the State (a process that is under way following the enactment of Law 28,793 in June) gives our country the opportunity to establish sustainable use and improve the conservation of these marine reserves. Thus, the development of ecotourism in the islands is seen as a great alternative. Pachacamac islands can join the ecotourism circuit having the Lurin Valley. His association with the Sanctuary of Pachacamac is evidence from pre-Hispanic times by popular myth and Cuniraya Cavillaca. "His role in the creation of the fertility of the valley, its strategic location and participation as an environmental asset for Maharashtra add to it," says Diego Guevara, coordinator of the Heritage Land Management and GEA. In myth appeared in the seventeenth century writings extirpator of idolatry, Francisco de Avila, the islands are Cavillaca the beautiful princess and his son, who fled to the sea when she discovered he had fathered a baby by a beggar, who was actually Cuniraya-god Viracocha. He was never able to reach his beloved to show his true identity. Although legend has formed two islands, Pachacamac is formed by a larger number. The main Pachacamac Island, is the largest. The second dimension is known as the island San Francisco. In between the rock emerges El Sauce. To the north of this set lies Widow, a small island that appears when the swell and tide eventually discover. To the south are some smaller rocks that rise to the surface and they are known as the Faraglioni. INTEGRATE THE ISLANDS Alongside traditional fishermen in San Pedro de Punta Hermosa, the Environmental Enterprise Group proposes the development of a coastal and marine tourism destination that promotes the recovery of marine biodiversity, the responsibility of the institutions in their conservation and articulation to circuits Lurín Valley resorts. Fishermen and Agustín Román Ruiz del Mar, project participants have the provision that members of his association are able to establish a tourism service. In addition, investment in basic infrastructure is necessary: ​​the implementation of a pier, wharf recovery of the island and acquiring suitable vessels for the service. Biologist Patricia Majluf, Biomar consortium, indicating that all these possibilities can be discussed in a management plan for the sustainable use of the islands and points, as the second step after its inclusion in the National System of Protected Natural Areas. Currently, the reserve is managed by the state-owned Pro guano fertilizer, which has put a guard on the island. However, marine biodiversity in Pachacamac islands - which includes families of lions and sea otters, sea birds, forty types of fish and shellfish eighteen - is preserved in part to the presence of the marine station of the Faculty of Fisheries Oceanography and Engineering, National University Federico Villarreal. Continuous research of its professionals can follow the evolution of the ecosystem. Ricardo Ghersi, head of the marine station, says coastal ecotourism - where quality and planned - can develop not only locally, but as an activity it engages researchers and foreign tourists interested in learning about the deep sea of our coastline, but currently do not have a responsible job to do. Federico Villarreal University has an interest in promoting it. So far, the Ballestas Islands and Palomino are the only formally develop ecotourism. Only the first, this activity contributes to an annual average of seven to nine million dollars to the economy of Pisco, a study of Biomar. Responsible management could open and regulated tourism in the islands Pachacamac, a natural paradise still so close to the city is unknown. Tourism should not be incompatible with conservation. WHO WAS THE GOD PACHACAMAC? The sixteenth-century Spanish chroniclers agree that Pachacamac ("the maker of the world") was the most important deity of the Peruvian coast. In many faithful flocked temple offerings and extensive deposits filled the sanctuary. It seems that much of its prestige due to their oracles and prophecies that were viewed from a far away land. Before the conquest of the Incas, this area, located between the rivers Lurin and Rimac, was inhabited by the ethnic group known as Ychma and may worship the main idol of that name. Then, these populations were incorporated during the government Tawantinsuyo Inca Tupac Yupanqui. The chronicles of the conquest ceremonial center had the character of a pilgrimage and, for 40 days, the Inca fasted before "talk" with divinity. With the conquest of Cuzco, came the name change of the chiefdom and the same idol which has since changed its name to Pachacamac. Another measure taken by the Incas was the construction of a temple to the Sun, and imposing higher than dedicated to Pachacamac, which even today can appreciate. SANCTUARY The Sun Temple, built by the Incas, is located in the highest part of the citadel. A narrow passage with large stone walls takes visitors up to the terrace. Lowering get to a place that is oceanfront. This part, which belongs to the Sun Temple, preserves their niches that, at first glance, appear to seats, but, according to some archaeologists, was to put the idols of their gods and then a ritual. But the most suggestive and colorful, constitutes the Acllawasi, which was restored in the time that Taylor worked at the Citadel (1940s). It adobe appreciate and land corridors, a huge patio, a two-story building, surrounded by four puquiales, which give an idea of ​​what it would have been majestic in his time this "Palace of the Chosen". Lived there, for example, daughters of chiefs, exercising in craft work, weaving, preparing chicha, etc.. It was absolutely forbidden the entry of men. In the building there was a kind of windows, which archaeologists call "blind windows". They are 28, just the governing Inca lunar calendar, which is 28 days. The town has about 200 hectares. But in recent decades has suffered invasions, which have pledged part of the cemetery. Now there is a trial but the villagers do not understand. They say they need to live and, apparently, unfortunately, are not interested in the archaeological monument. FIRST SPANISH IN PACHACAMAC The first Spanish visit the temple of Pachacamac was Hernando Pizarro, brother of the conqueror of Peru. History tells us that, by request of Atahualpa, who wanted to hasten the arrival of gold to pay his ransom, Francisco Pizarro decided to send his brother Hernando to the "mosque" of Pachacamac to collect all the treasure offered. He was accompanied on the expedition 14 riders, 9 pawns and an unknown number of Indian carriers. The sanctuary was the famous oracle or idol, the Spanish believed was gold. Therefore, Hernando, upon arrival, with his horse climbed the steps of the temple and took the great disappointment of his life when he saw it was just wood. Annoyed, took the statuette and the sight of all Indians, kicked into the air and it ended up rolling to the base of pyramid temple. The Indians, stunned by the scene, thought that Hernando was also a god and gold reached all neighboring villages. There is evidence that much gold they have collected the brother of the conqueror who used horses horseshoes and nails gold for his return to Cajamarca. All this happened in February 1533. Pachacamac and the founding of Lima When Pizarro was not sure of the success of Jauja as capital of Peru, down to the coast to locate a suitable place to establish, once and for all, the seat of his government. It came with an expedition to Pachacamac and sent three soldiers spotted the new place. It was January 1535. They were Ruy Diaz, Juan Tello and Alonso Martin de Don Benito who, starting from the sanctuary, crossed the hill Lomo de Corvina (vs. Conchan) and came to the "Valley of the Pyramids" (Rimac), the largest of all known the coast. It was the perfect place. As noted by the historian José Antonio del Busto, "Pizarro listened attentively, this February 12, 1535, those of the veteran soldiers, and having it please the Holy Kings-whose party came to explore the three-riders, determined to put to new capital under the royal patronage of these three patterns. " Indeed, the City of Kings (in honor of the Three Kings) was founded on January 18, 1535, a Monday morning. CALL 997797655 FOR INVESMENT INFORMATION
