Lucio Gorla Profile
Hi, I'm Lucio, 59 years old from Milan, Italy, EU.
Independent traveler for several years, I often travel alone.
In choosing destinations and itineraries, I adopted the list of world heritage sites as my most reliable guide and I really like discovering their beauties and how much interesting they hide.
My next travel plans:
- Mexico (February)
- Canada (July)

Lucio Gorla Italy - 10-Aug-22
[visited in April 2022]
Based in the town of San Agustín, it is quite easy to reach the three sites indicated as WHS. A two-day ticket for the entire archaeological area is on sale and can be purchased at the Museum located at the entrance to the San Agustin Archaeological Park, which can be reached on foot from the town along an asphalted road.
This is undoubtedly the largest and most interesting site of the three and worth a day's visit.
The next morning I visited the other two sites: Alto De Las Piedras and Alto de los Ídolos, they are in Isnos and a ride by car is required to reach them. Less extensive than the main park of the previous day, especially the first, but in my opinion they are both worth a visit and you can do it in half a day.
