Great site for exploring and getting a feel for Incan beliefs, skills, etc. before heading to Machu Picchu or hiking the Inca Trail. Climb to higher levels to get full sense.

Miraflores is a wonderful part of Peru filled with wonderful restaurants and parks to see! Highly recommend visiting Love Park, the Mall on the Cliff, and Kennedy Park, all areas within walking distance. There’s also mutiple markets in the area that sell beautiful souvenirs as well.

The trip consisted of a flight over the Nazca Lines. The plane was quite small so everyone had a window seat and the pilot flew over every "picture" twice to ensure people on both sides had an excellent view. Perhaps not a good idea if you're a nervous flyer but I enjoyed it immensely.

This place is known for being a fortress according to the guide, here there was a battle between the conquerors and the Incas the most interesting about this place is its architecture, here there are huge stones that were used for the construction of Sacsayhuaman.

This archaeological zone, an excellent example of pre-Colombian America, once served as the capital of the Chimu Kingdom, which reached the height of its power in the 15th century before falling under the Incas.

Ancient ruins uncovered in Peru and very interesting. Unfortunately the government does not have the money to carry on with the excavation of these sites but that have great value
8. San Blas

This traditional old quarter of Cusco is the city's most picturesque district characterized by narrow and steep streets, colonial houses built with walls of Incan stone and numerous art workshops.

So interesting to walk the narrow streets, observe the Incan stones providing support for the buildings. Great local restaurants. Be prepared for street vendors to follw you with their wares. Have a firm “no thank you” or Sols ready as they are persistent.

Do not miss this stunning building. it is really special. Don't be cathedral led out. Just go. Only downside is that the organs do not work.
