\"\"<\/a>Cuzco<\/span> signifie "le nombril" en Quechua. Les Incas<\/a> pensaient que le nombril est le centre de toute vie, et Cuzco \u00e9tait pour eux l’ombilic du monde. La capitale de l’empire Inca que les conquistadores d\u00e9couvrirent en 1533 abritait 100.000 habitants, Cuzco conserva une certaine influence pendant les quelques dizaines d’ann\u00e9es qui suivirent la conqu\u00eate ensuite elle entama un long d\u00e9clin. <\/p>\n

Brusquement tir\u00e9e de l’oubli par la d\u00e9couverte de Machu Picchu<\/a> en 1911, c’est aujourd’hui une v\u00e9ritable capitale touristique, point de d\u00e9part de toutes les excursions vers la vall\u00e9e sacr\u00e9e et porte d’acc\u00e8s \u00e0 l’Amazonie<\/a>. <\/div>\n
La caract\u00e9ristique la plus frappante de Cuzco est son architecture, d’\u00e9normes murs aux pierres parfaitement ajust\u00e9es sans aucun mortier t\u00e9moignent du g\u00e9nie artistique et technique de ce peuple, c’est un exemple typique de la fusion entre les cultures inca et espagnol. La plaza de Armas est le lieu id\u00e9al pour partir \u00e0 la d\u00e9couverte de cette ville surprenante.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
A voir \u00e0 Cuzco<\/span><\/div>\n
Parmi les \u00e9difices religieux, la cath\u00e9drale qui marie l’architecture baroque espagnole et l’admirable travail de la pierre propre aux Indiens, l’Eglise El Triunfo, l’Eglise de la Compania construite au 18\u00e9me si\u00e8cle sur le site du grand palais Amaru Cancha et de l’Inca Huayna Capac, l’Eglise de La Merced l’une des plus anciennes et plus belles du P\u00e9rou, le temple du soleil.<\/div>\n
Dans la calle Loreto s’\u00e9l\u00e8ve, sur les vestiges d’un autre site sacr\u00e9 des Incas, le couvent de Santa catalina. Il y a 5 si\u00e8cles ce lieu \u00e9tait d\u00e9j\u00e0 habit\u00e9 par des femmes clo\u00eetr\u00e9es (3.000 femmes et jeunes filles choisies pour leur beaut\u00e9 et leur naissance).<\/div>\n
Le charmant quartier de San Blas parsem\u00e9s de ruelles escarp\u00e9es bord\u00e9es de maisons blanches tr\u00e8s anciennes aux volets et portes bleus.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Autour de Cuzco:<\/span><\/div>\n
A 3km au nord de Cuzco se dressent les imposants vestiges de la forteresse de Sacsayhuam\u00e1n<\/strong>, t\u00e9moin du g\u00e9nie constructeur des Incas. Edifi\u00e9e \u00e0 l’aide de blocs m\u00e9galithiques, l’une d’entre elles fait 9m de haut sur 5m de large (certains p\u00e8sent plus de 15 t).<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
\"\"Pisac<\/strong> \u00e0 32km au nord de Cuzco est le site arch\u00e9ologique Inca le plus complet apr\u00e8s Machu Picchu. En dehors de ses c\u00e9l\u00e8bres ruines, Pisac est aussi renomm\u00e9 pour son march\u00e9 dominical. <\/div>\n
Chincheros<\/strong> \u00e0 30km de Cuzco pr\u00e9sente une grande homog\u00e9n\u00e9it\u00e9 architecturale, et ses habitants restent attach\u00e9s aux coutumes ancestrales. Chaque dimanche s’y tient un authentique march\u00e9 indig\u00e8ne tr\u00e8s color\u00e9 o\u00f9 l’on pratique encore le troc. Chincheros poss\u00e8de une \u00e9glise du 16\u00e9me si\u00e8cle avec d’int\u00e9ressantes \u0153uvres d’art colonial. Un int\u00e9ressant petit mus\u00e9 montre les objets recueillis sur les fouilles arch\u00e9ologiques faites pr\u00e8s du village.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Yucay<\/strong> est un petit village paisible dans une belle vall\u00e9e au climat agr\u00e9able \u00e0 48km de Cuzco. On y trouve un palais inca fait de pierres et de briques crues, d\u00e9cor\u00e9 de dessins.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Urubamba<\/strong>, village camp\u00e9 dans une vall\u00e9e verdoyante au pied de l’impressionnante cordill\u00e8re de l’Urubamba. <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a>Ollantaytambo<\/strong> \u00e0 72km de Cuzco est un charmant village Indien. C’est une occasion unique de voir comment \u00e9tait organis\u00e9 une cit\u00e9 Inca, car les maisons modernes se sont ins\u00e9r\u00e9es dans le tissu urbain ancien sans en modifier le trac\u00e9. C’est aussi une impressionnante forteresse pr\u00e9hispanique qui domine la vall\u00e9e de ses temples et terrasses unis entre eux par un syst\u00e8me complexe de canaux d’irrigation et d\u00e9coulement.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Andahuaylillas<\/strong>, \u00e0 39km de Cuzco est r\u00e9put\u00e9 pour son \u00e9glise fond\u00e9e en 1580 et qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 surnomm\u00e9e la " Chapelle Sixtine du P\u00e9rou, Simple \u00e0 l’ext\u00e9rieur, elle diff\u00e8re \u00e0 l’int\u00e9rieur par son style baroque colonial et sa richesse : autels dor\u00e9s, fresques murales, peintures et plafonds polychromes.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Remarques :<\/span><\/div>\n
Cuzco est \u00e0 3.400m d’altitude, ce qui signifie que les nuits sont froides, mais que heureusement les journ\u00e9es sont ensoleill\u00e9es (surtout d’avril \u00e0 octobre), il convient donc de faire tr\u00e8s attention aux coups de soleil.
