At a Glance
In the Spanish Conquest of the Incan Empire, the city of Cusco was decimated. Temples and palaces were looted of the gold and silver that was once offered to the gods. Is there anything left of these magnificent buildings and their treasures? Join historian Oscar Oviedo Velasco for a tour of this city, capital of the largest empire ever seen in the Americas. Explore the streets of Cusco in search of the remains of a city that long ago disappeared.
