Coricancha
It is the most important place that existed in all of South America, it had riches that could only be compared with those of King Solomon's palace due to the amount of gold that it housed inside, taking into account that it was the most important sanctuary in terms of religion that dominated South America that was connected with all the temples of the empire, taking into account that its walls were decorated with gold plates collected from different parts of the empire, even in our times you can see part of the magnificent architecture that has no equal, for An example inside are the enclosures that belonged to the Andean gods such as the rainbow, lightning, stars, the moon and the sun. It is surprising to admire how these walls survived earthquakes, it seems that time does not pass through this sanctuary and they do not have adhesives such as concrete or cement. Also inside it houses a stone that has 14 angles

Sacsayhuaman
The journey to this place is an average of 50 minutes, this archaeological area has details that make it an impressive architecture, due to the size of the stones that the entire enclosure has, it is there where you can appreciate the tallest stone, which has a height of 6 meters high and others is another gigantic block with 134 tons of weight this place is also currently part of the most important ceremony that can be seen in our times known as the Inti Raimy Festival or the Sun Festival , the complete function is still unknown since it is between a religious and a military area, as for the decoration of the walls you can see the silhouette of a snake, there is also a door of a colossal size for some unmissable photographs, the viewpoint that is very relevant since there are the bases of some towers that fulfill the military function giving the visitor a very beautiful view of the city.

Q'enqo
This area is smaller than Saqsayhuaman, at first glance some figures that stand out on the rocks stand out, this is because in the Inca era there were different shapes, for example, in the main area there was the shape of a large sculpted puma that was destroyed in the colonial era, you will also be able to know a very special place where the mummification process was possibly carried out in the Inca era, this funerary chamber stands out in the variation of temperature, which is why it becomes an area of great relevance.
4
Pucapucara
In this area we visit an area that has different functions, the main one is military since you can see the best panoramic view of the Cusco Valley from the southern part of Cusco, this can be seen at the top of this area.
5
Tambomachay
To get to this area it will take us only about 7 to 8 minutes, we consider that this is the area that has a height of 3800 meters at sea level, being the highest point of the route, the environment is very attractive with a path that you can see the trees that belong to the city of Cusco, reaching the main area we can see an area with colorful water sources that have been in this place for more than 500 years, they are water sources that served for important ceremonies, it is so mysterious since the spring has been there, despite the fact that the area is only partially preserved since in colonial times it was seriously affected you can see the main area
