Qurikancha and Nearby Streets... Cusco, Peru.

Located in Cusco, Qurikancha is a historic structure based on the Inca Empire's Temple of the Sun, with the Santo Domingo Monastery built on top during the Spanish colonial era. This site is famous for its unique blend of Inca and Spanish architectural styles, with the intricate stone walls of the Inca period standing out. The surrounding streets of Qurikancha offer an impressive blend of tradition and modernity. The cobblestone streets and red-roofed houses create a serene atmosphere, while nearby cafes and shops provide a lively environment for tourists. Especially at sunset, the warm golden light bathes the streets, making it a popular spot for photography.
