The city of Cusco, ancient capital of the Inca Empire and center of Andean culture, features amazing examples of Inca architecture which have remained intact over the years, as evidence of the magnitude of the Inca civilization. The city features a rich heritage of Inca temples, colonial-era homes and art exhibitions, witnesses of the cultural symbiosis produced in Cusco that makes this city a cultural treasure of Latin America, and one of the most exciting tourist destinations in the world.
