Iskanwaya is a pre-Columbian sacred site, situated on a mountain ridge above the Llica River in Bolivia, 325 km north of La Paz.

[1] The sacred site of Iskanwaya is found on the edge of the Cordillera Real, 250 m above the River Llica canyon[2] and 1,672 meters above sea level.

[5] The city of Iskanwaya was built on two platforms on an area of 0.6 square kilometers and was notable for its running water provided by a network of irrigation canals.

The irrigation system brought water from the Naranjani stream through canals and was distributed to the agglutinated Iskanwaya dwelling groups.

Their houses were rectangular and grouped around patios, they were built with blocks of slate stone, joined with mud trench mortars.
