This is one of the largest towns of the Quebrada. Visit the Church, the market and the handcraft fare where the local women sell their products. Very near there is Pucará de Tilcara (Pucará: fortified place on a hill) which is partially rebuilt. It is also worth going to the Archaeological Museum.

Celebrations: Tilcareño January , Carnival in February and Inti Raimi in July.

Easter processions: Here you’ll see “ermitas” that are huge banners made with flowers and dry fruits.
