CUSCO MUSEUMS
Introduction
Going along History
The city of Cusco is, itself, a great museum that holds amazing archaeological and artistic treasures. Its streets, protected by magnificent buildings in which stone and adobe are superposed, are proves of a glorious past.
The imposing ruins, which make Cusco the "Archaeological Capital of America", as well as the impressive colonial buildings, have overcome the time test and they continue flirting the worldwide tourism.
Neither the bloody rebellions nor the violent earthquakes has been able to destroy this precious heritage. They have not stopped the artistic spirit of its people either. Thanks to this spirit, Cusco has an interesting museum offer settled in large houses of famous characters, religious institutions and even in the same monuments. It is really worthy to perform this run.
