On its wide plateau, decorated by Piuray and Huaypo lagoons, you can find imposing snow-capped mountains. Chinchero has a rich monumental and cultural heritage and is one of the few places in Cusco that visibly maintains the Incan urban design. The remains of the Incan palace, the colonial church erected on stone foundations, its impeccable cultivation terraces and a colorful fair constitute their main attractions.
