Head out on a morning tour to stretch your legs. The San Blas quarter was originally used as dwellings for the Inca nobles, who built impressive stone constructions a short distance from what used to be Huacaypata, currently the Main Square. One can still discern the unmistakable rigor of the Inca walls at the base of many constructions.

Today the quarter is a conglomerate of charming cobblestoned streets highly popular among craftspeople, who sell their works on the street. See some of its top attractions, including San Blas Church, a temple that houses a priceless pulpit with carvings performed by a masterly indigenous woodcarver.

Finish the tour by visiting the San Pedro market, a pantry of thousands of products from different parts of the region. After that, return to Cusco main square.
