Puka Pukara
Puka Pukara〔(mincetur.gob.pe/ ) (in Spanish) using the Quechua spelling〕〔(cosituc.gob.pe ) (in Spanish) using the Quechua spelling〕 (Quechua ''puka'' red, ''pukara'' fortress, "red fortress",〔Diccionario Quechua - Español - Quechua, Academía Mayor de la Lengua Quechua, Gobierno Regional Cusco, Cusco 2005〕 hispanicized spellings ''Pucapucara, Puca Pucara, Puca Pucará'') is a site of military ruins in Peru situated in the Cusco Region, Cusco Province, Cusco District, near Cusco. This fort is made of large walls, terraces, and staircases and was part of defense of Cusco in particular and the Inca Empire in general.
The name probably comes from the red color of the rocks at dusk. Puka Pukara is an example of military architecture that also functioned as an administrative center.
==Location==
Puka Pukara is located in mid-southern Peru, roughly 4–5 miles (7 kilometers) from Cusco on the road to Pisac and near the Antisuyo, the jungle portion of the former Incan empire. The fort is located on high ground overlooking the Cusco valley and Tambo Machay, creating a beautiful - and useful - view. When it was built, it was probably placed so that these areas were visible to give the military extra vision over important parts of the empire.
