The pre Inka cemetery is very old discovered by the grave robberies first whose exposed the mummies to the surface, but the Pre Inka cultures were really prepared how to treat to bodies once mummified they were buried in the graves facing to the east because according believes Incas and Pre Inka Cultures believed in the reincarnation

These are a vast network of lines and drawings in the desert sand of animals and plants credited to the Nazca culture covering an area of approximately 350 square km / 135 square miles. Some of the best drawn figures are the hummingbird, the dog, the monkey, and the long-tailed mockingbird. Maria Reiche, a German archeologist, devoted 50 years of her life to studying and researching the area and came to the conclusion that the Nazca Lines was an astronomical calendar. From a 12 meter / 39 feet lookout, you can partially observe the shapes of the hand and the tree. However, to truly appreciate the drawings, it is recommended to fly over the area in a small airplane. The Nazca Lines were placed on the World Cultural Heritage List in 1994.

The Koricancha was one of the most impressive buildings of Inca Cusco according to the historians: the glowing gilding of the interior walls illuminated what used to be the main temple dedicated to the worship of the Sun God. The Spanish built the church and Dominican convent on top of the original structure around 1534, but they collapsed during the earthquake of 1650 and were rebuilt around 1681. The convent has an art gallery of valuable seventeenth and eighteenth century canvasses.

The area contains thirty-three archeological sites. The most famous is Fort Sacsayhuaman. It might well have been a religious structure, but for its location and style, the Spanish and some historians believe it was a military construction. The most important temple in Hanan Qosqo or Upper Cusco might have been located there, dedicated to Andean cosmology and to the worship of the Inti (sun), the Quilla (moon), Chaska (stars), Illapa (ray), and other divinities. It is described as massive -- some of the stones used to build it weigh between 90 and 120 tons. This is also the site of the Inti Raymi or Festival of the Sun every 24th of June.
