Section 1.15 Challenge -> Inca Pyramid + Cycles problem

Hello, I am new here (and in 3D modeling in general). This is my end of section challenge, I am quite happy with how it turned out in general, but every time I try to render this with Cycles it gets grained. Is this normal? I am doing something wrong with the lights?

This is the Eevee version, it has no noise

This is the Cycles version, the colors look nicer, but there is noise

Thank you for the help, feedback is always appreciated

You have to increase the samples in the render tab, or activate the denoise function (lowest part put a tick in the box) :

However, in most cases its a good the activate the denoising, it blurs your picture a bit, but the higher the samples the better the quality. usually you can get a good result with around 500 samples and denoising activated. Without denoising you probably need over 2k samples to get close to the denoised quality.
