San Agustin

Set in the Colombian Andes at 1,700 metres, San Agustin is the site of the largest pre-Columbian necropolis in the Americas -- a UNESCO World Heritage Site containing over 500 mysterious stone statues and tombs carved by an unknown culture between the 1st and 8th centuries AD. Surrounded by waterfalls, cloud forest, and the upper Magdalena River canyon, it is one of South America's most extraordinary and least-visited archaeological destinations.
