Cusco and Machu Picchu
Cusco, is located in the South - Eastern region of Peru. As the “Archaeological Capital of America”, Cusco was a sacred city and capital of the empire of the Tahuantinsuyo, and it was extended by four regions which included great parts of Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Chile. The city of Cusco was the Andean State Capital of Inka's empire. Cusco is actually, with its impressive cultural heritage, the main attraction in Peru and the most visited. The contrast of the blue sky with the wonderful landscape makes it an unforgettable city. Nowadays, when you walk around the city and you can see the streets with colonial and spanish houses which are built with Incan stones, you will realize how important the city was in the ancient times.
