City of Vilcabamba

City of Vilcabamba is second level of Tomb Raider and of Peru. In it, Lara continues her search for the Scion of Qualopec and discovers a long lost Incan city.

Vilkabamba is, in reality, an ancient city that was in lost to time in Peru. Before Tomb Raider's release in 1996, Vilcabamba had not been found, however, amazingly, it was discovered by archaeologists several years afterwards.

In the game, once Lara exits the Caves, she discovers the sealed City of Vilcabamba - a lost civilization that was presumably once protected and reigned by Qualopec. When this city fell into ruin is unclear, nor is there evidence that the Spaniards managed to invade it successfully. However, the real-life Vilcabamba had not been protected as dearly; there is evidence the conquistadors raided it with ease and slaughtered the majority of its inhabitants.

What Lara finds is quite different - petite, livable huts that own hay-beds, pottery and animal skins for rugs/clothes; a pool that was presumably a watering hole for the citizens; communal rooms, and another large exit hallway that is barricaded by several levers and keys.

Despite obviously being a region for its ancient Inca dwellers, the City of Vilcabamba has evidently been structured in a way to keep something in - or out.
