Private Tour to Cusco City and the Bohemian Neighborhood of San Blas

3 hours and 30 minutes

Easy

  Your tour will begin in Coricancha also known as the Temple of the Sun, the construction of which was ordered by Inca Pachacútec (1438-1471) and was used as base for the construction of the Santo Domingo Convent upon the arrival of the Spaniards. You will then go to the Cathedral, one of the most splendid Spanish colonial churches in America, which is shaped as a Latin Cross and houses about 400 colonial paintings from the Cusco art school, and impressive goldsmith, silversmith and precious stones works. Its construction started since 1560 to 1654. The Ecclesiastical Chapter ordered to extract hundreds of stones from the Sacsayhuamán fortress for this purpose. You will finally go the San Blas quarter, located at a short distance of the Main Square. Today the neighborhood is a conglomeration of charming cobblestone streets. The Church of San Blas is located in its center and was built in 1544 on top of an Inca sanctuary. Your visit will be panoramic.
