About Cusco

Cusco, de oude Inca-hoofdstad hoog in de Peruaanse Andes, combineert enorme stenen muren met koloniale kerken en is de poort naar Machu Picchu.

De Plaza de Armas is het hart van de stad, omlijst door de kathedraal en de jezuïetenkerk La Compañía. Inca-metselwerk is overal in het centrum bewaard gebleven, het bekendst bij de Qorikancha, de zonnetempel waarop de Spanjaarden een klooster bouwden, en in de steen met twaalf hoeken in de straat Hatun Rumiyoc. San Blas, de wijk van de ambachtslieden, klimt steil omhoog met werkplaatsen en cafés.
