“Ancient Inca capital at 3,400m — gateway to Machu Picchu, colonial architecture, Andean culture”
The former capital of the Inca Empire, Cusco sits at 3,400m in the Peruvian Andes and was considered the navel of the world (Qosqo) by the Incas. Spanish conquistadors built colonial churches directly on top of Inca stone foundations — visible in walls like those at Qorikancha, the Temple of the Sun. The city is the gateway to Machu Picchu, the 15th-century Inca citadel hidden in cloud forest.
