EDITORS COMMENTS
Discover the awe-inspiring beauty and intricate craftsmanship of the Inca civilization at Sacsayhuaman, a magnificent stone-walled fortress located in the heart of Cusco, Peru. This ancient architectural marvel, also known as Qosqo or Cuzco in Quechua language, showcases the extraordinary skill and engineering prowess of the Incas. The fortress, which dates back to the late 13th century, is a testament to the Incas' mastery of stonework. The massive blocks, some weighing up to 120 tons, fit together so perfectly that not even a knife blade can fit between them. The zigzag pattern of the walls and the precise alignment of the stones are a sight to behold. Manco Inca, the last Inca ruler of Cusco, is believed to have built Sacsayhuaman as a military fortress to protect the city from invading forces. The fortress's strategic location on a hill overlooking the city and its impressive defensive structures, including large monoliths and towers, made it an impenetrable fortress. Archaeologists and history enthusiasts continue to study Sacsayhuaman to learn more about the Inca civilization and their advanced building techniques. The ruins offer a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the Incas ruled the Andes mountains and left behind a legacy that continues to inspire and captivate us. This close-up image of Sacsayhuaman's intricate stonework invites us to explore the mysteries of the Inca civilization and appreciate the ingenuity and artistry of the ancient builders. Join us on a journey through time and discover the wonders of the Inca world.
