Cuzco, Peru: 15th Feb 10



Today we spent the day looking around the town, visiting the Qorikancha, which was once the most important Inca temple and was covered inside with Gold. Unfortunately the Spanish converted it into a monastery and took all of the gold away!

We also walked around San Blas, which is to the North of the main square and consists of lots of narrow winding alleys, with loads of character.

Following that we popped into the Inca museum and had a tour of the cathedral – all very impressive.

This is our last day in Cuzco and we’ve both loved it – we’ll definitely come back one day.
