The Cathedral of Cusco is one of the most beautiful and significant monuments in America, whose construction is located under the foundations of the Royal Palace of the Incas. Upon conquering Cusco, the Spanish conquistadors demolished the palace and built the cathedral over a period of more than 50 years.

Its carving on the edges of the stones was very precise so that they fit together. In fact, it’s so precise that you can’t even slide a piece of paper between them. However, it remains a mystery how the Incas transported these heavy stones here.

Located a few meters from Sacsayhuaman, Q’enqo was used by the Incas as a site to make sacrifices. In addition, the mummification of corpses was carried out here.

Tambomachay served as a spa for the political elite of the Incas. Here are canals from which natural spring water flows from the nearby hot springs.
