cuzco is easy to get around. taxi's are inexpenssive ( but ask the price before you get in or you'll pay 3 times more) i stayed at the cusquenita hotel i think. its about 10 mins from center. but make sure you get ready for inclines and that you adjust you the elevation before running around. *especiallly important for smokers* there are great restaurants everywhere you go. take some of the side walkways fromt he center and you'll find all the artisans and cute little restaurants with live music. there is also a cool little irish pub in the center.

Loud music was amplified across the plaza, explosive sounds rang throughout the air occasionally, and large crowds watched the events unfold.

We arrived at La Hotel Prisma in Cuzco. The hotel is awesome! There is an atrium in the middle, with some rooms having a window looking out into it. Our room had a balcony with a breathtaking view of the city and surrounding mounta…Plaza de Armas and "ooh'ed" and "aah'ed" at La Cathedral.

We met our friends who just flew in from New York and we took an early flight to Cusco. We stayed there for the night at Hostal Corihuasi. We had it reserved earlier. This was our second and last place we had reserved in advance. It w…Plaza de Armas (every main square in Peru is called Plaza de Armas), and high up so we could see almost entire Cusco from the hostel. We were greeted by very nice staff and a Coca tea.
