The ancient city consists of an urban area and an agricultural area, which are separated by a stone wall. The city is well-planned, with the northern part of consisting mostly of stately palaces and shrines, and the southern part consisting of workshops, apartments and public areas. Due to the sun worship of the Incas, the buildings in the city were mostly design to assist in the worship of the sun. In the center of the ancient city is the spectacular Temple of the Sun, which can track the path of the sun. During winter solstice in the southern hemisphere, the sun comes through a trapezoid window and hits the center of a monolith in the middle of the temple. The design reflects the astronomical and architectural expertise of the ancient Incas.
