MACHU PICCHU TOURS
How to spend time in Machu Picchu?
In the city of Cusco there are many touristic places, but it is
essential that you take the time to do tourism in the right way
and avoiding to rush your vacation.
If you have been planning to know about Peru don´t forget to add
CUSCO to your list, a citadel with a cultural legacy from
immemorial times, according to the people who visited Cusco.
Cusco it characterized by mysticism, magic and more. So plan
your trip ahead of time with us!
The most visited places to visit are:
Koricancha: The most important temple of the
Tahuantinsuyo which means in Quechua "Temple of the Sun", a
beautiful sacred temple that was built under the order of
Pachacutec after his victory over The Chancas on 1438.
Before the construction of this monument, Incas used to worship
the sun in a little temple called Inticancha, constructed by
Manco Capac. It´s important to know that this temple includes
some rooms destined to worship other gods as Wiracocha, Illapa o
Mama Quilla.
Sacsayhuaman: Located at the north of the main square of
Cusco, 1km away of the Colonial Church named "San Cristobal".
The name of this place is a compound Quechua word- Saqsay: to be
satisfied and Waman: falcon. Sacsayhuamán is a famous Inca
fortress, built with huge blocks of stones placed with high
precision.
It´s impossible to introduce a needle between stones. Its hard
to explain how the Incas could cut the stones with such mastery.
The principal custom celebrated in Sacsayhuamán is the "Inti
Raymi" that takes place on June 24th at the winter solstice.
Which lets us see the Inca ritual of worshipping the Sun God or
Inti. To this festival people from all over the world come here
and makes reservation with anticipation.
The Sacred Valley of the Incas or Urubamba Valley: Is a
valley in the Andes of Peru, close to the Inca capital of Cusco
and below the ancient sacred city of Machu Picchu.
IT is a fertile area, occupied by ruins of the Incas from long
time ago. These ruins are visible in the entire valley, with two
important places like Pisac and Ollantaytambo. The Sacred Valley
is a home for many tiny villages.
Aguas Calientes:(Spanish for "hot water" or "hot
springs") is a town on the Urubamba river and is close to the
historical site of Machu Picchu, which is 6 km away or about 1
hour 30 minutes walk. This site has many natural hot baths,
which gives the name to the city. the baths were destroyed by
floods several years ago, but they have been rebuilt.
