Half Day Cuzco City Tour with San Blas

Explore the city of Cuzco today, one of Peru's most famous and beautiful cities. Also known as the Imperial City, the navel of the world to the Incas and the capital of the Inca empire; Cuzco today is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The day starts with a visit to the San Cristobal viewing point, which has a panoramic view of the city. Then to the picturesque San Pedro Market in the heart of the city. From there visit the Koricancha temple, an ancient Inca palace and centre of worship of the sun god, on the site of which the Dominicans ordered a church to be built, which survives to this day. Up the hill takes you to the bohemian neighbourhood of San Blas, home of many of Cuzco's artists and craftsmen. The excursion ends at the cathedral, the largest religious building in the city, dominating the main square; the Plaza de Armas.
