    Historical inca site and now a convent.
    It makes sense to see this with a tour guide so you understand the history. Its a historical inca site and now a convent. It has beautiful gardens. There are paintings in the site too. You can see the inca architecture and the cleverness of the design to withstand earthquakes.

    Temple of the sun god.
    This site is open, admission has a price of 15 soles, although the entire route cannot be done because of the covid. You can do the tour on your own or pay a guide, which costs around 25-35 soles. Group area allowed up to 8 people, you must maintain social distancing and masks, here you can have an idea of the majesty of the Inca architecture, with its fine polishes used for the construction of its temples.
