Cusco (Qosqo in Quechua), which means the navel of the world, is one of the largest regions of Peru. Its geographical location has allowed it to develop agriculturally, standing out in the cultivation of corn, quinoa, barley, potatoes, tea, and coffee. Today tourism is its main source of income, due to the great archaeological wealth left by the Tahuantinsuyo empire and the passage of the Spaniards.

It is undoubtedly the city that preserves the most beautiful and important archaeological monuments of Peru and America, including Macchu Pichu, thus being the first tourist destination in our country, an important tourist destination for those who come to appreciate the impressive Inca architecture, made with originality and perfection of stonework.

In its surroundings, there are many Inca and Colonial archaeological remains such as the archaeological site of Macchu Picchu, located 130 km northeast of the city of Cusco, 600 m approx. on the Urubamba River. Inside this Inca citadel, a total of 150 dwellings are estimated; one-room houses, highlighting the sundial (or Intihuatana), an astronomical observatory that was erected in a strategic place of the citadel, from where the Incas could observe the movements of the sun.
