What an amaising town! Extremely touristic and double the price, but for a reason...

It is steeped in history being the Incan capital city. The huge Cyclopean master masonary lies at the bottom of most colonial churches ( as the spaniards destroyed the Incan temples and used the magnificent stonework as their own.) Its hard to imagine how they cut such precise stonework, without modern tools. Some stones we have seen has 23 sides, precisely fitted without any morter, and earthquake resistant.

In saying that the Colonial churches are still impressive, and the town retains that spanish charm but its the near by ruins that steal the show.
