Description

Explores the legend of Paititi, a hidden Inca refuge said to lie somewhere in the Amazon basin. Believed to be the last sanctuary of Inca royalty fleeing Spanish conquest, Paititi became the subject of countless expeditions and enduring obsession. While no single “golden city” has been found, archaeological discoveries in the Peruvian jungle suggest the Incas—or their descendants—may indeed have established hidden settlements. Paititi survives as both a possible lost city and a symbol of resistance and memory.
