Intiorko, also known as the Alto de la Alianza (lit. 'Hill of the Alliance'), is a 780-m.a.s.l. hill located in Tacna, Peru. An important landmark of the city, its stone has been used for the construction of many of its landmarks, such as the Cathedral, the Parabolic Arch and the Prefecture.
The hill is the site of the Alto de la Alianza Monumental Complex, a museum that commemorates the eponymous battle (itself named after the hill's plateau), and the Santísima Cruz Del Cerro Intiorko, a chapel and a place of pilgrimage during Holy Week.
