THE CUSCO ROUND - STOP BY STOP

HOLE 1 - PAR 2

Sacsayhuamán

Sacsayhuamán is an archaeological site and citadel located on the northern outskirts of Cusco, Peru. Because Cusco was the historic capital of the Inca Empire, this location is a primary place to see authentic examples of Inca architecture. When you walk through the ruins, you can pick out the precision of the stonework while keeping in mind that the site sits at an altitude of 3,701 metres. I find the air up here a bit thin for a bird, but the view of the city below is worth the effort. It is a great spot to get your bearings and see how the city spreads out from the center before you head back down into the busier streets.

HOLE 2 - PAR 3

Muyuqmarka

You will first notice a circular stone layout, which is the base of what was once a round Incan tower. This archaeological site is situated within the fortress Saksaywaman above Cuzco in Peru. It was used as a Temple of Inti and was designed as a round building with an open central court that had a fountain. The temple also featured triple walls. Much of the original structure is gone, as the temple and two flanking towers were dismantled during Spanish rule. I have found that the circular shape makes it stand out from the more linear ruins you see elsewhere in the fortress. It is a fascinating spot to pause and imagine the full height of those towers before they were taken down.

Piedra de los Doce Ángulos

Let me show you the twelve-angled stone, an archeological artifact in Cusco, Peru. This stone was once part of a stone wall of an Inca palace, showcasing the masonry of that era. Over time, the city changed around it, and the stone is currently part of a wall in the palace of the Archbishop of Cusco. Because of its unique construction and history, it is considered to be a national heritage object. I've seen plenty of stones in my time fluttering around these streets, but this one is truly something else. You can pick out the exact point where the angles meet the surrounding blocks with incredible precision. It is a remarkable example of how the old foundations of the city still support the structures you see today.

HOLE 5 - PAR 3

Qurikancha

You will first notice the precise stonework of Qurikancha, a sun temple and archaeological site in Cusco, Peru. This location was the most important temple in the Inca Empire. Because Cusco was the capital of the empire, this site held a central position in their spiritual and political life. The layout and grandeur of the Coricancha were later documented in descriptions written by early Spanish colonialists who encountered the site. Visitors today can observe how these ancient structures persist in the heart of the city. The site remains a primary example of the architectural priority given to the sun temple within the imperial capital, showing the scale of the religious center that once dominated the landscape of the region.
