Bazar Travels
Brandon B.Posted by Brandon B.

Plaza de Armas is considered the very hub of Cusco. Due to its location in the very center of the historical town, this is the place you should start your city tour. There are many spectacular buildings surrounding the plaza. In the very middle, you will find a statue of Tupac Amaru who was the last indigenous monarch. Two major cathedrals that are facing the Plaza de Armas are The Cathedral of Santo Domingo, which was Cusco’s first cathedral and the Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesus. Which is often referred to as the most wonderful baroque-style church in the Americas.
