Pikillacta

Pikillacta is the only pre-Inca site in the Cusco area. This adobe complex was built around 700 to 900 AD by the Huari. Pikillacta is one of the less impressive archeological sites near Cusco but draws some attention due to the fact that it is included in the Cusco Tourist Pass. If you are in the area, there is a small Inca site just a short walk from Pikillacta, known as Rumicolca, a travel checkpoint for the Incas.

There is public transport to Pikillacta which leave from Urcos.
