City Breaks to Cusco
A visit to the fascinating Peruvian city of Cusco is an experience you will never forget. You will see evidence of Cusco’s rich history that includes evidence of the Killke, the Inca Empire and what happened to Cusco after the Spanish invasion. Cusco’s city centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and still has many streets, buildings and plazas from pre-Columbian times. The Barrio de San Blas, with its many craft shops and artisans, is particularly beautiful. Calle Hatun Rumiyuq, where the Inca Roca was later converted to the Archbishop’s residence, is also a must-see for tourists. City breaks in Cusco will surely include many incredible archeological sites and historical cathedrals. Food plays an important part in Cusco’s history and visitors will enjoy the city’s new fusion and neo-Andean restaurants. There is also ChocoMuseo, a chocolate and cacao museum, in the city’s centre.
Accommodation Options for Cusco City Breaks
Cusco sees many visitors and offers accommodation of every sort no matter what your budget is. There is everything from high-end hotels to dirt cheap hostels. Cusco is unique and your city break should be as well. You can always check into a hotel or hostel but if you want to really get to know the city and its people, you should consider using Wimdu. The site allows travellers to contact hosts offering comfortable rooms in their own homes. With the local perspective, city breaks take on a whole new meaning. Your hosts will be happy to answer any questions you may have and share some of the city’s secrets. Cusco welcomes travellers from all over the globe and if you are arriving from far away, you might want to make a few more stops on your journey. If you want to do more travelling in South America or anywhere, you can choose from a wide selection of hosts. City breaks will never be the same.
