Cusco周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

今日では大聖堂の内部で写真を撮ることは許されていませんが（だからこそかもしれませんが）、クスコを訪れる人なら誰でも必見の場所です。様々な建築様式と素材で作られた数え切れないほどの祭壇、様々な守護聖人、銀製の聖体顕示台、そしてもちろん全体の建築様式は称賛に値します。身廊の支柱壁は、周辺のインカ寺院の石で建てられています。地震の後、大聖堂の屋根は破壊され、ゴシック様式で再建されました。

Cost 70 soles to enter, only accepts cash payments. Only pay at the top of the hill not the sellers on the way.

At the heart of Cusco is Coricancha, the most important temple of the Inca Empire. Coricancha, also spelled Korikancha or Qorikancha, means "Golden Temple" in Quechua. This impressive Inca Temple of the Sun remains a key feature of the city for locals and tourists alike.

The fortress of “Sacsayhuamán” (in Quechua this means contented falcon) is one of the most important archaeological complexes of the Inca Empire and is located above the city, at the gates of Cusco. When you visit the complex, you will be amazed: one stone was placed on top of the other with the utmost precision and an impressive technique.

The Cusco Cathedral is one of the most emblematic buildings of the ancient capital of the Inca Empire. Besides, it is one of the main attractions to appreciate on a walking tour in Cusco. This historical construction is also considered a Cultural Heritage of the Nation and has a combination of unique characteristics. The Cusco Cathedral is important by its Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance styles that blend harmoniously, unique in South America. Also, by its largest deposits of colonial art representative of Cusquenian school style. The entire Cathedral houses an innumerable amount of artworks from the Cusco art school. Valuable examples of art that are worth knowing and admiring. Source: https://www.machutravelperu.com/blog/cathedral-cusco

Hatun Rumiyoq is a stone wall (green diorite) located on the street of the same name. It must have been part of the palace attributed to Inca Roca. It covers most of the Hatun-Rumiyoc street; a world-famous street because it houses the “stone of the twelve angles”, known for the perfect union of its 12 corners and sides with the stones that surround it. This wall has intersections of colonial and republican structures and currently houses the Archbishop's Palace and the Museum of Religious Art of Cusco. At this point the architects had to build a kind of platform to level the ground, since this is where the steep slope begins that leads to the traditional neighborhood of San Blas.

The Stone of Twelve Angles is made of a diorite formation and gained popularity due to its magnificent workmanship and border of twelve angles, which indicates a perfectionist Inca architecture, since there are no asymmetries in its joints.

The construction of the cathedral was no small feat; it spanned nearly a century, from 1560 to 1654. This extensive period of construction, renovation and expansion explains the cathedral's eclectic architectural style. It is a living museum of architectural trends, from the Renaissance and Gothic of the Spanish to the incorporation of indigenous influences. During my first visits, photography was still allowed in the church, but now it is unfortunately prohibited.
