Peru 🇵🇪 Cusco Essential Attractions + Detailed Photo Spot Guide Cusco was the capital of the ancient Inca Empire, and it also has Baroque-style palaces and churches. The fusion of Inca and European cultures makes Cusco even more mysterious. The architecture has a Toledo feel, but with more of the Inca civilization's atmosphere. It is recommended to spend 1 day in Cusco. As a transit point to Machu Picchu, one day for Cusco is enough. ✈️ Airplane: Lima - Cusco (1.5h 💰310) It is recommended to bring a backpack, as baggage check-in fees are doubled. 🎈 The tour route starts from the Plaza de Armas. 🎈 Climb all the way up to the viewing platform. 1️⃣ Church of the Society of Jesus: A Catholic church located in the Plaza de Armas. You can enter and visit for 💰40. Taking a photo from the other side of the street is a great photo spot. 2️⃣ Cusco Cathedral: Located directly opposite the Plaza de Armas, with many steps. In the afternoon, when the sun shines, sitting on the steps and taking pictures is great 📸 3️⃣ Ancient Inca Wall and Twelve-Sided Inca Stone: A well-preserved ancient Inca wall where you can take photos. 4️⃣ Templo del San Blas: A Catholic church that seems to be currently closed, but the church square is quite beautiful, and the nearby streets are also very distinctive, making it a great place to take pictures. 5️⃣ San Blas View Point: Here, you can overlook the entire Cusco. It is recommended to come in the evening to capture the sunset + the lights of thousands of homes. However, you need to climb a long, long flight of stairs ‼️ 🍛 Dinner: Cuzmo Sushi, serving sushi 🍣, the taste is very good, and the service is excellent, 💰200 🏨 Hotel: Hilton Garden Inn Cusco, the hotel is on the mountain, so you must take a taxi to get around, but everything else is fine, 💰560 Tips: 1. Lima has terrible traffic, so try to leave early for the airport in the morning; 2. Cusco has an altitude of 3,500m, so you may experience altitude sickness; 3. Using Soles in Cusco is more cost-effective; 4. Souvenirs in Cusco are cheaper than in Lima, so you can buy them here; 5. You can buy the cloak for Machu Picchu in Cusco; 6. Bargain down to half price; 7. It is convenient and easy to book a tour to Machu Picchu directly in Cusco ❤️.
