Cusco (sometimes spelled Cuzco), a city built in Incan stone, rises with pride to show the traces of a glorious past. It is now known for its archaeological remains and Spanish colonial architecture.
​
Plaza de Armas is the central square in the old city, with arcades, carved wooden balconies and Incan wall ruins.
​
The baroque Santo Domingo Convent, located just a few minutes away by car from Samichay, was built on top of the Incan Temple of the Sun (Qoricancha), and has archaeological remains of Inca stonework.
