About Cusco

Cusco, antiga capital inca nos Andes peruanos, combina imponentes muros de pedra e igrejas coloniais e é a porta de entrada para Machu Picchu.

A Plaza de Armas é o coração da cidade, enquadrada pela catedral e pela igreja jesuíta da Companhia. A cantaria inca sobrevive por todo o centro, mais famosa no Qorikancha, o templo do sol sobre o qual os espanhóis construíram um convento, e na pedra de doze ângulos da rua Hatun Rumiyoc. San Blas, o bairro dos artesãos, sobe a pique entre oficinas e cafés.
