ITINERARY :
Cusco City Tour begins, in the main square of the imperial city, a living example of the mixture of Andean and Spanish cultures.
• We start with the Temple of Qoricancha, in this place you can see the different temples.
This is a religious center known as “Temple of the Sun,” actually, it was the most important temple in Inca times. What stands out here is the impressive engineering that was employed in its construction, and the paintings from the Cusquenian School housed inside.

This is an impressive fortress of excellent architecture; it is famous for its construction based on rocks. Some of these rocks are about 9 m (30 ft) high and weigh more than 350 tons. Sacsayhuaman is the place where the “Inti Raymi” (Party of the Sun) is celebrated every 24th of June.
• We will arrive at the archaeological complex of Q'enko, which it was a ceremonial and religious center in Inca times. Qenqo was an amphitheater in which sacrifices used to take place.
• We will continue the tour until we reach Puca Pucara, formerly an Inca surveillance post and entry control to the capital of the Inca state.
• Finally we will arrive at Tambomachay, which was a very important place for the Inca, since in this place the worship of water was carried out while enjoying leisure; it is also known as the place of the waters of the eternal youth.
