Discover the History of Huchuy Qosqo: The Huchuy Qosqo archaeological site, believed to have been established during the reign of the eighth Inca ruler, Wiracocha, offers a glimpse into the past. The Inca rulers acquired expansive royal estates not only to demonstrate their influence and amass wealth but also to pass on to their descendants. These estates served multiple purposes, from being elegant retreats to acting as strategic fortresses. The name “Huchuy Qosqo,” meaning “Little Cusco,” suggests that it was designed as a royal estate or an administrative center inspired by the grandeur of the Inca capital. Your guide will share fascinating details about the historical importance of this magnificent site, enriching your understanding of its role in Incan history.
