Cusco
Cusco, (also spelled Cuzco or Qosqo), endures as one of the undisputed highlights of South America. According to Inca mythology, this two mile-high Spanish Colonial city sprung from the naval of the earth.
This storied capital, the gateway to the Inca Citadel Machu Picchu, offers a dynamic mix of traditional Andean culture and innovative modern amenities — world class restaurants, hotels and boutiques. Its unique character is preserved in a vibrant indigenous culture and in the narrow side streets and massive carved stone foundations inter laid with inexplicable perfection by the Inca more than five centuries ago. |
