We literally dropped into the centre of this lovely Inca city. I couldn't see an airport and all of a sudden we were in the ground with a large concrete wall in front of us.
Afternoon tour took us to some super sites. Here we learned about the sacred sun temple which was all but demolished by earthquakes and the Spanish. Photo below shows how the blocks were joined internally.
A spectacular cathedral with superb Cusco style art pained in the European style with a Cusco artists twist like the last supper with a cuy (cooked guineapig) on the deciples table.
Inside a convent which used Inca ruins as foundations. Clever!
Looking over Cusco. Spot the runway. I can't but am assured it's down there.
Martin with drinks lined up. Must confess- the 2 free ones are mine. Lol!
