Cusco The City Imperial Traditional & Classic: Alternatives & Best Tours in Cusco Walking around Cusco is setting foot in the Center of the World as it was for the Incas and for that reason we shall visit the main temple of the city called Qorikancha so called for the immense quantity gold that it contained (qori=gold) and from there you will be taken to the immense Saqsaywaman built miraculously over the mountain with that name where the view of the city is spectacular and what makes more spectacular is the weight of some of the stones (more than 3O tons) and the questions about the capacity for the Inca to have carried them up there. They are equivalent to whatever we know about Stonehenge. We shall also visit the cave of Qenqo, near Saqsaywaman where we can appreciate what must have been a veneration center. Upon continuation, we shall visit a large water fountain called Tambomachay which is one of the 324 to 328 that ornamented de city in Inca times. Cusco held them as places of adoration and worship. As we return to the city, this tour ends in the main square where we shall visit the cathedral where we can see abundant painting made for the Christianization of the natives since they did not have the ability of reading. The main altar is silver plated and the chorus has excellent sculptures in wood. The visit should not miss the chapel of the Lord of the Earthquakes beside the chorus.
