Spanish Churches and Museums Tour

The earth of the Inca days was Huacaypata (the place of tears) and Cusipata (the place of happiness), divided by a channel of the Saphi River. Today Cusipata is Plaza Regocijo and Huacaypata is the Plaza de Armas, around which are colonial arcades and churches such as the 17th-century baroque Cathedral with his solid silver high altar; The first Christian church in Cusco El Triunfo; La Compañia de Jesus a twin-towered church; La Merced and his jewelled monstrance; San Francisco, an austere church reflecting many indigenous influences.

Many colonial buildings are today museums, they contains precolumbian collections, colonial paintings and funiture, textiles, ceramics, metalwork, jewerly, architecture and technology that shows the evolution of Peruvian culture.
