Naupa Iglesia (Choquequilla)
Tourist attraction
👍👍 I did a hike from Ollantaytambo and I definitely recommend it. It’s quite easy (almost all the way flat) but long (16km there and back). The ruins are astonishing, if you are in the neighbourhood don’t miss them!

CENTRO ARQUEOLOGICO DE URCO
Heritage preservation
👍👍 A hidden gem in the Sacred Valley that is not too hard to find. A shrine dedicated to water rituals hence the name (unu). Later utilized by the Incas this location was probably first used by the Killke culture.
Well worth a visit if you have time when you are passing by Calca.

Depositos de Pinkuylluna
Archaeological site
👍👍 There are two archaeological sites on the edge of Ollantaytambo. Pinkuylluna is the less touristy of these. It's in a dramatic setting up a steep hill. There are constructed stone steps, but they are a little rough in places, and there are steep drops nearby. The ruins are interesting to walk throug...

San Cristobal
Catholic church
👍👍 I was here on 9/9/17. You will see the vista of the Cusco City. A much better location then at Christo Blanco and is free. You can that the path from the 12 angled stone which is more relax then behind the Basilca of Cusco.

👍👍 What a gem! We really lucked out with Ricardo who helped us as tour guide despite our lack of Spanish, with help with Google translate. He was very knowledgeable and we learned that 2 of the crypts belonged to family of Salcedo, which was benefactor of San Franciscan order, and the first orders of S...

Cusco Planetarium
Planetarium
👍👍 I cried a little here. Not because the stars are so beautiful - though they were, and it was amazing to see them - but because Ana Maria spoke so movingly about the universe and our role in it as she guided us through the constellations, that I felt like the challenges of the world were small and su...
