It was not until April 28, 1873 that a law was given to create the department of ApurÃmac, based on the provinces of Andahuaylas (Ayacucho), Antabamba, Aymaraes and Cotabambas (Cusco), and naming Abancay as its capital.
Besides Abancay, the capital, another tourist attracion in the region is Andahuaylas, a rather cold city, located at 2980 meters above sea level (9800 ft) and the region's most modern city.
Though the ride to Andahuaylas, our hopeful destination for the evening, was shorter in miles, the guide book said the trip by bus can take as much as 18 hours, longer in the rainy season, which was just beginning.
Andahuaylas was actually 15 miles away and took us 45 minutes to reach.
