Cusco's Absolute Essentials

Cusco, the former capital of the Inca Empire, displays a fusion of pre-Columbian masonry and Spanish colonial architecture. This collection covers the city’s historical evolution, from the precision-cut Twelve-angled stone and Qoricancha Sun Temple to the Plateresque Cusco Cathedral. It includes the defensive ruins of Puka Pukara, the ceremonial water channels of Tambomachay, and the artisanal workshops of San Blas. The list also features the San Pedro Market for local commerce and the Museo Inka, which houses archaeological artifacts and mummies from the Incan period.
