In Cusco, and the Sacred Valley, superb ruins await the adventurous traveler. The most famed of all is Machu Picchu.
Cusco is the former capital of the Inca Empire of the Solar. Considering that the sixteenth century, Spanish colonial structures ended up crafted atop former Inca Palaces, of which only the foundations continue to be. Examples in the central Plaza de Armas are the Cusco Cathedral and La Compañia church. A different hanging instance is Qorikancha, the former golden courtyard of the Temple of the Solar. The Spanish utilised stones from Sacsayhuaman, an Inca stronghold overlooking the town.
In the Urubamba Valley, or Sacred Valley, visitors can see the mysterious Moray Terraces and the pre-Inca Salt Mines of Maras. Ollantaytambo is a dwelling Inca town and its towering ruins form the start off of the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu.
The long-missing Inca bastion was uncovered from the jungle in 1911. It continues to be a thriller how the Incas managed to stack the significant granite blocks that make up the city’s structures so specifically, at higher altitude.
Minor is also identified about how the Incas turned a multi-lingual tribal location in an empire that is now identified as a single of the best civilizations in history.

Mahi R I don't recommend you go there because I'm there and if you look down its just a sheer drop but all the photos you see tell the truth so I do recommend you go but get over your fear of heights first

I'm still left scratching my head as to how the fuck those old spanish structures, hundreds of years old, have managed to resist the earthquakes. Yet modern structures crumble when the ground shakes.
Peru is amazing all the way around….You'll fall in love with it….!
