Cusco, often spelled Cuzco, Peru is the undisputed archaeological capital of the Americas. A city filled with history, like the rise and fall of the Inca Empire and the invasion of Spanish conquistadors in the 1500, Cusco is the continent’s oldest continuously inhabited city.

Today, remnants of both eras share the narrow city streets – from centuries-old baroque cathedrals to exquisite stone masonry – creating a rare collision of Andean and Spanish styles that makes Cusco like no other place on earth.

Cusco is the gateway to the famous Incan citadel, Machu Picchu – an UNESCO World Heritage site. However, the ancient ruins are not the only impressive thing that surrounds Cusco. A main factor for the existence of these temples and citadels is the surrounding fertile, agricultural land. The sacred importance of crop fertility the surrounding mountains and nature helped the Incas decide on the location to build Machu Picchu.
