The only incanato city in Peru that is still inhabited. Typical example of the extraordinary urban planning of the Incas, and therefore an obligatory point of visit for those interested in this civilization. Its cobbled and winding streets, the ruins scattered everywhere and its agricultural terraces are attractive that stand out by themselves. It is one of the most monumental architectural complexes of the ancient Inca Empire, commonly called «Fortress», due to its huge walls, it was actually a Tambo or city-lodging, strategically located to dominate the Sacred Valley of the Incas. The architectural type used, as well as the quality of each stone, worked individually (see image), make Ollantaytambo one of the most peculiar and surprising works of art made by the ancient Peruvians, especially the Temple of the Sun and its gigantic monoliths.

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.
