Yanque is one of the towns along the Colca. Many have baroque churches of surprising sophistication. They are whitewashed and within are sometimes simple murals. There is a museum with good models of these churches in the central square in Yanque, along with other rooms dedicated to the culture of the region.
The town itself is nicely perched above the Colca Valley and it has various little hotels. Other towns offer less to visitors and are best visited by car as bus services can be somewhat irregular.
