Über den Ort

The ancient stone settlement remains an isolated mountain complex built by the Tairona civilization.

Ciudad Perdida functioned as the primary political and manufacturing center along the Buritaca River, constructed across complex stone terraces by the Tairona civilization. The ancient mountain settlement developed within the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in the Santa Marta territory, predating the construction of Machu Picchu.

The Tairona populated the stone complex across many generations until the arrival of Spanish conquistadors. Years of intense commercial exchange followed by armed conflict forced the population to abandon the mountain city. Today, the indigenous Kogi people maintain ancestral lineage from the Tairona in the surrounding valleys.
