Cuzco

Simply fantastic!

The well called navel of the World is an amazing place where Spanish and Inca`s culture is melted at its maximum expression. Walking around the city is breathing air from the Andes, is an endless discovering of Ruins wherever you go and a travel to a magical past alive even nowadays.

It is possible to find important Inca monuments in the environs of Cusco not more than 30 minutes long each other such as Sacsayhuaman, Tambomachay, Kenko and Puca Pucara Fortress. Outside the city of Cusco there is The Pisac Village, The Sacred Valley of the Incas, Chinchero Village, Ollantaytambo, the Inca Trail and the stunning Machu Picchu.
