CUZCO, Inca's Imperial city was born at pre Incas times and was home of Inca emperors serving as political center of the whole empire named as the Tahuantinsuyo. The great Inca Pachacutec, and others ruled from there so as to expand their territories covering almost all off actual South American countries. Later on, under Hispanic conquerors influence, Cuzco became a rich mixture of both cultures, Quechuas and Hispanics. Today this long standing and marvelous city is home to welcome visitors which get to know about its rich culture and history. Walking along their stone made narrow and ancient streets, arriving to its Hispanic Cathedral built over the Kiswarkancha prior religious Inca site, shows confluence of cultures; whatever you do or see will speak about greatness of its people along centuries. Their costumes, their gods, political and military rules, architecture, crops work, and so long.
