After having visited the most relevant ruins that the city of Cusco offers, we go to the great temple of the sun, known as the Qoricancha or Recinto de Oro. The Qoricancha is located in the city of Cusco, a few meters from the main square. This marvelous temple is considered one of the most sacred and impressive constructions that the Inca lords had. It is said that the temple housed a select group of Inca priests, in charge of worshipping the moon and the sun god. It is said that when the conquistadors arrived at Qoricancha, the walls were covered with solid gold, and there were so many ornaments and jewels made of gold, that it took them weeks to melt all the gold to send it to Spain.
Then we go to the ruins of Sacsayhuaman, imposing Inca construction, located north of the city. Sacsayhuaman is one of the most significant archaeological legacies of the city of Cusco, due to its enormous construction, composed of huge blocks of stone. It is said that the construction of Sacsayhuaman took more than 50 years and more than 20,000 men were used in the construction. Later we will continue our tour and head to the ruins of Q'enqo, cold caves carved by the Incas where you can see a small altar where it is believed the Incas mummified their dead. Then we will visit the ruins of Tambomachay, a beautiful place where water emerges from a hill to some fountains built by the Incas, it is said that the Inca emperor came here to take his baths and to perform religious cults to the water.
