Later, we will walk to the nearby Qorikancha Temple, also known as the Temple of the Sun. This majestic place, whose exact date of construction is still a mystery, was one of the most important religious centers of the Inca Empire. It also represents one of the best examples of the fusion between Inca and Spanish culture, and as soon as we enter the temple you will discover why!
Then, we will get back on the minibus to go to the 4 ruins of Cusco. After a half hour drive, we will arrive at the fortress of Sacsayhuaman. There we will enjoy a guided tour in which we will learn why it is considered the greatest architectural work of the Incas.
Afterwards, the minibus will take us to the Qenqo shrine, one of the most important sanctuaries of the time, and the Puca Pucara watchtower, known as the Red Fortress. Finally, we will visit Tambomachay, also called the Bath of the Inca since it was precisely here where the Incas performed their water cult.
After visiting the most essential places in Cusco and its surroundings, we will leave you after a four and a half hour tour near the Plaza de Armas.
