▲ The Sanctuary
The PUNQU
Retreat Center
A sacred container for transformation, nestled at the foothills of Mount Saywa in the heart of Peru's Sacred Valley.
▲ Sacred Architecture
Designed for Deep Healing
The physical space where you heal is just as important as the medicine itself. At PUNQU, every detail of our ayahuasca retreat center was intentionally designed to serve as a safe, nurturing container for your plant medicine journey.
Located in the secluded foothills of Mount Saywa in Urubamba, our sanctuary is surrounded by the powerful energy of the Apus (mountain spirits). We blend traditional Andean architecture with modern comfort, creating an environment where you can completely surrender to the healing process.
From the open-air ceremony spaces to the quiet integration rooms, the center flows seamlessly with nature, allowing the boundaries between the inside and the sacred earth to dissolve.
