Peru - Cuzco

 
Peru Cuzco is the archaeological capital of South America. Located at 3326 m of altitude, it is to advise to pay great attention and to take time to acclimatize itself. Do not do too much effort the first days if you arrived by plane.

To see:

- The plaza of Armed - the cathedral (built in 1559)

- the ruins incas - the crowned valley (to 15 km in the north of the city, to see Pisac)

150.000 hab. -- alt. 3400 m -- Lima: 1228 km -- Arequipa: 649 km -- Nazca: 676 km -- Puno: 391 km -- Machu Picchu: 120 km

The name of the capital Inca, Ccoscco, hispanized later in the form of Cuzco, means in quechua the navel of the ground. Located in a high very fertile valley, the city enjoys, thanks to the proximity of the tropic, of a climate favorable to agriculture. Today classified as cultural inheritance of humanity for the richness of its monuments incas and colonial, it appears among the cities best preserved of old America.
