See the famous Junaita Mummy, learn Inca rituals, and explore ancient artifacts

The Andean Sanctuaries Museum in Arequipa is home to the world-famous Juanita Mummy, also known as the Ice Maiden. Discovered on the snowy peaks of Ampato Volcano, Juanita offers a rare glimpse into the Inca Empire and its sacred human sacrifice rituals. Exceptionally preserved, she and the artifacts found with her reveal the customs, beliefs, and daily life of the Incas more than 500 years ago.
