Cusco
Incan walls in Cusco
Calle Hatun Rumiyoc "Street of the Great Stone", perhaps the best-known street of the city. It is here that, perfectly fit in a wall of carved stone, you can find the famous stone with the 12 corners. It is a wall constructed with the stone type "green diorite" and which is located outside the palace attributed to Inca Roca. The wall is admirable due to its polygonal architecture, whose front comprises almost the entire Hatunrumiyoc Street.

Cusco, stone with the 12 corners


The temple of Koricancha (convent of Santo Domingo). When the Spaniards conquered Cusco the area corresponding to the "temple of the Sun" the main temple of the Inca Cusco was donated to the Dominican Order that immediately constructed their church and convent demolishing it almost completely the Inca buildings. Anyhow a considerable amount of the original Inca structure was left and integrated into the church structure. In 1950 a violent earthquake destroyed a large part of the convent and church leaving uncovered many beautiful Inkan structures and the interior area of the temple of the Sun. The quality of the building was extraordinary, made with grey basaltic andesite and calcareous rocks brought from the quarries located 20 to 30 km away. The western wall of the temple, still partially subsisting, forms the famous "solar round building" the semicircular wall overlooking the present day Arrayan Street and the Avenida del Sol.

As can be seen today, Koricancha is a classic example of the fusion of Inca and Western cultures, and the single tower of the convent built in the Baroque style, rises above the tile roofs of the city. Just around the corner there is an underground little but interesting archaeological museum that exhibits artefacts uncovered at the site.
