Itinerary and highlights
.You will visit the well-known and beautiful temple of Sacsayhuaman, which continues to be a very important religious and ceremonial site for the Incan culture. You will be amazed by the ingenious architectural achievements of the Incan civilization and impressed when imagining the feat of moving and fitting each uniquely shaped stone, weighing some 70 tons, so perfectly together, without mortar that not a blade of grass could pass between them.
Plaza de Armas is one of the main tourist attractions of the city of Cusco. Here are several religious temples (the cathedral, the Church of the Society of Jesus and, the Chapel of Triumph), accompanied by beautiful portals with colonial arches.
