Valley, but less crowded and with its own charm. The first point of interest
will be the archeological site of Tipón, where you will have the opportunity
to admire its terraces, water channels and general architecture. Then, we
will go on to visit the adobe-brick built Pikillacta, the only pre-Incan
site that remains in the area of Cusco. After Pikillacta, we will head to
Andahuaylillas Church, also known as the Andean Sistine Chapel. Here, you
will be amazed by the 16th, 17th and 18th century mural paintings and
altars, completely decorated in gold. Finally, we will head back to Cusco
