Exploring Peru’s Inca Heritage: Cusco and Machu Picchu |
|
|
Explore the ruins of Inca terraces, baths and fortresses and visit the 'lost city' of Machu Picchu
| Overview | |
|
Discover the fascinating history of Peru on this tour of some of the finest Inca ruins of the country. The sacred capital of the Incas, Cusco, is replete with Incan stonework and charming Spanish style architecture, colonial arcades and red-tiled roofs. Inca architectural skill is also evident at the fortress of Sacsayhuaman, which means ‘satisfied falcon’. The terraces and megalithic structures of Ollantaytambo, the ‘infallible fortress’ of the Incas is another awe-inspiring sight. The highlight of any trip to Peru is a visit to the ‘Lost City’ of Machu Picchu. Steeped in mystery and shrouded in clouds, Machu Picchu (Old Peak in the Quechua language) will sweep you into the world of Inca legend. Revered from pre-Inca times as a sacred site, the Incas built one of the most extraordinary cities of the ancient world on Machu Picchu, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site and also one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. This ‘symphony in stone’ was a ceremonial site with beautiful terraces, ceremonial baths, temples and tombs. Explore the ruins of Inca fortresses and cities and marvel at the rich history of Peru on this trip.
