Cusco was once the capital of the Inca empire and now is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, convenient to nearby archaeological ruins. It’s a great place to photograph old Spanish colonial architecture, grab a tasty local lunch or spend the night in a historic hotel. We enjoyed all three! Texture by SkeletalMess.

Walking around Cusco, we were discovering all these beautiful sights as well as oddities. We were in fact getting addicted to the beautiful lanes of Cusco. We could have easily spent months walking through it tiny lanes, visiting and revisiting the small nameless gems locked behind each wall. But we had to start looking for travel companies now.⠀
