Stop At: Qorikancha, Santo Domingo s/n, Cusco 08000, Peru

Stop At: Cusco Cathedral, Portal Belen Plaza de Armas, Cusco 08002 Peru

Stop At: Sacsayhuaman, Cusco 08000 Peru

Following the itinerary, the Sacsayhuaman fortress is our next stop. The impressive megalithic structure has withstood centuries of earthquakes and if it wasn’t because of the damages caused during the colonization process, the site could have been even more outstanding than what it already is.
