Day 1: Cusco Cathedral > Coricancha or Temple of the Sun > Sacsayhuamán > Quenko > Puka pukara > Tambomachay

The day begins with a pick-up at your accommodation in the company of your guide, and then you tour the city. The first place to visit is the cathedral complex made up of the churches of the Sagrada Familia, the Cathedral and the Triunfo, which contain an important sample of colonial mestizo art and interesting stories to learn.

The second stop is at the Temple of the Sun or Coricancha, where important vestiges of Inca cosmogony and engineering can be seen.

After finishing these two visits in the city, a stop is made at Sacsayhuamán, an ancient solar temple, known today as a fortress due to its colossal dimensions. Quenko, a labyrinthine stone shrine. Puka Pukara, the red fortress, a mysterious place named for the color of the walls at sunset and finally Tambomachay, a ritual site dedicated to the cult of water where springs and ceremonial fountains still exist. The tour concludes at the main square of the city at the indicated times.
