Saqsaywaman

Saxewaman is located on a mountaintop, and its historical position is comparable to Machu Picchu, but its reputation is relatively small. It is still very beautiful to stand in Saxewaman and look out over the city

On the way to Machu Picchu, Saxewaman is a must. It is also a very historic Inca civilization, the architecture is very spectacular, and it is still quite well preserved.

Saxewarman and Machu Picchu are equally important, but they are slightly less famous. The scale is very large and the stone formation is very memorable.

Cusco is really a mysterious place. Could you have polished such a large stone in the past? I doubt aliens.

Visitors to downtown Cusco, Saxe Warman is a former mountain fortress in the northern suburbs of Cusco, the ancient capital of Inca. This fortified "fortress" built of huge stones sits on a steep hill overlooking the city and offers sweeping views of the southeastern valley. Cusco was listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1983 with Saxe Warman. The ancient fortress is now the stage of the annual Inca festival, the Inti Raymi and Warachikuy festivals. The local altitude is an average of 3400m. It is recommended that tourists just come to drink some local bitter Ke tea to ease and move slowly. Welcome to Peru to travel and feel the mysterious Inca culture!

Welcome to Peru to visit the mysterious Inca culture!

Cuzco's Andean Mountains are located in the earthquake zone, and the Incas have long known the power of the plateau earthquake, so they always focus on earthquake resistance when building houses. Inca masons cut precisely the stones and then seamlessly stitch together the stones of different shapes without the use of adhesives. The stones are so tightly bonded that they can't fit in a single piece of paper. The Inca's skillful masonry is not as good as the modern builders. It is for this reason that the Spanish invaders retained the original foundations of the Incas when they dismantled the original buildings and built the colonial city of New Cusco. Sacsayhuaman can't be missed if you want to experience the exquisite construction technology of the Incas in the city of Cusco. Located on a hill north of Weapons Square, the site of the Inca Ancient Wall is considered to be the largest and most spectacular Inca site besides Machu Picchu. It's a long name, but it's easy to remember, because the pronunciation is very close to that of English exy Woman. This huge stone array overlooks the city of Cusco. The remaining boulders are the largest ever seen by historians in Cusco and its surrounding areas, weighing about 300 tons. Like other typical Inca buildings, the Incas did not use any steel or cement, but used exquisite polishing technology to grind large stones into specific shapes, and then tightly pieced together. Saxekvaman was well preserved in several major earthquakes in the history of Cusco. But when Spanish colonists built churches in the city, they took down a lot of big stones, and now they see Stonehenge only about 20 (%) of its heyday area.

Cuzco is the birthplace of Inca culture. The ancient city is on the plateau of 3200 altitude. The fortress of Saxewaman is built on the top of the hill of the highest point of the ancient city, which can give a bird's eye view of the ancient city. The fortress is the Inca site next only to Machu Picchu in Peru. The Inca masons cut several tons of boulders precisely and then joined them seamlessly without any adhesive. The heaviest single boulder weighs more than a dozen tons, and it feels like the Incas were absolutely inspired by the arrangement of corn kernels on the corncobs. (Smile) (Smile) (Smile)
