Overview
Free Walking Tour Cusco: Discover the Living Heart of the Inca Empire
Explore Cusco through its living culture, traditions, and iconic landmarks. We begin in the Main Square, in front of the Inca statue — the ancient center of the Inca Empire, where all royal roads once converged.
Walking along Sun Street, we enter the heart of Inca Cusco, discovering original stonework that still supports modern buildings. Along the way, you may meet llamas and alpacas while learning how Inca engineering continues shaping daily life today.
At Qoricancha (the Sun Temple) and Cusicancha Palace, you’ll see some of the finest examples of Inca architecture and hear stories about astronomy, rituals, and Andean values that remain alive in local culture.
We continue to the Inca Roca Palace and the famous Twelve-Angled Stone, where you’ll understand the precision and symbolism behind Inca construction techniques.
Finally, we explore San Blas, Cusco’s artisan neighborhood, visit its traditional water fountain, and enjoy panoramic views from San Cristóbal Church.
This is more than a walk — it’s a cultural immersion connecting history, people, food, and the living traditions of the Andes.
