馃搷 3. San Crist贸bal Viewpoint – An Andean Postcard

From here, you’ll see the red rooftops, the surrounding hills, and the perfect contrast between colonial architecture and nature. A favourite for those looking to capture the authentic Cusco.

Tip: Ask your guide to share historical details about the San Crist贸bal viewpoint while you snap your photos – add history and value to your shots. With Peru Latin Tour, these stories become beautiful photographic context.

馃搷 4. Calle de los Siete Borreguitos – Colour, Flowers, and Style


This charming alley is filled with flowers, vibrant colours, murals, and details that instantly steal your heart.

馃搷 5. Sapantiana Aqueduct – Arches that Tell a Story


A rustic, authentic spot with lots of personality – perfect for vintage-style or editorial photos if you’re looking for something different.

馃搷 6. San Blas Neighbourhood – Bohemia and Colours


Cobblestone streets, artisan workshops, wooden and ceramic details, music… San Blas is pure visual inspiration.

Peru Latin Tour Tip: Explore at your own pace. Let us guide you down quieter alleys, into small workshops, and to chat with locals. The best photos come from spontaneous moments.

馃搷 7. The Stone of the Twelve Angles – An Inca Icon

馃搷 8. San Pedro Market – Culture, Life, and Colour


Colours, smells, movement… San Pedro market is an explosion of the senses. Local people, artisan stalls, exotic fruits – perfect for capturing authenticity.
