If you are considering a vacation in this mysterious and beautiful region then renting a serviced apartment or holiday letting in Cusco gives you the freedom to explore this ancient area at your own pace.

Two important things that should be taken into consideration when planning a holiday in this city are that, firstly, due to the altitude of this region the air is noticeably thinner and you should allow yourself a few days to acclimatize before embarking on any major trekking and, secondly, to visit many of the places of interest in this area you will need a tourist ticket, for further information on purchasing a tourist ticket visit: www.boletoturisticocusco.com

This region’s natural environment is well worth exploring with it’s wonderful mountain ranges, lush forests and expanses of exposed granite, keep your eye out for the odd roaming alpaca too.

Some of this area’s ancient ruins more than worthy of a visit include Sacsayhuaman, Pucapucara, Qenko and The Sacred Valley of The Incas. These mysterious sites give you an insight into the ancient Incan traditions and incredible craftsmanship, quite an awe inspiring experience. At Pisac you will also find a traditional Indian Market where you will discover some fantastic little finds.

A Cusco serviced residence or rented apartment also gives you access to Plaza de Armas, the city’s main square, where you will find the absolutely stunning architecture of the cathedral which sits on the foundations of an ancient Incan Palace, Compania Church and El Triunfo Church and look out for the Inca walls, perfectly hewn granite blocks that have been fitted together with absolute precision, without the need for mortar or cement. These structures have far outlived many newer, architectural structures, even during earthquakes. Quite ingenious.

The Plaza de Armas also boasts some fabulous restaurants and shops and look out for many of the craft markets in this region where you can watch the crafts being produced before you buy them. Look out for some of the beautifully crafted silver jewellery and the alpaca clothing.

A holiday residence or aparthotel in Cusco also provides convenient access to some excellent spas including Siluet Sauna and Spa where you can treat yourself to some deliciously relaxing treatments and enjoy a detoxifying sauna.
