After passing through the site entrance, the first temple you encounter at Tiwanaku is the Akapana Pyramid.  The Bolivian Government is currently excavating this pyramid, which now looks more like a pyramid than the mud hill Adele and I experienced back in January 2004.

The Akapana Pyramid is T-shaped, just like the temple at Puma Punku.  On top of the pyramid is a gate similar to the Gate of the Sun only fallen down, an excavated area with tunnels beneath it, and some stones with unusual magnetic properties.  I did not feel much at the pyramid; I guess I was too focused on the Gate of the Sun...
