Plaza de Armas - Cusco

Plaza de Armas - Cusco

Cusco, Peru

This early 17th century baroque Cathedral is full of interesting historical artifacts. It is a prime example of how Spanish/Italian art and religion morphed when encountered by indigenous peoples.

Note the graffiti on the hill. This is a common sight in Peru. Apparently, it is commonly used by politicians to advertise their campaigns. This example was created by Cusco's local infantry troop.
