PISAQ

A small city is a large archaeological complex located in the district of Pisac, province of Calca, 33 km away. east of the city of Cusco visited by many tourists daily. There is a strange coincidence between the distances that unite the cities of Pisac, Cusco and Pikillacta, these coincide at 30 km. By joining these three cities with a straight line, a perfect equilateral triangle is achieved that creates multiple speculations about the incredible architectural genius that the Incas had. The beauty of its walls, built with large stone blocks polished with extraordinary symmetry and unmatched handling of stone, leaves the visitor perplexed. It has a very colorful market and amazing Inca architecture in the place called Complejo de Intihuatana.

Its fertile fields are irrigated with the waters of the Vilcanota River, which upon entering the Province takes the name of the Urubamba River.
