Tambomachay

Located five miles from Cusco, Tambomachay, also known as ‘the Baths of the Inca,’ is a testament to the Inca’s reverence for water. This site, with its scattered pools and intricate stone-carved waterways, is believed by historians to have been reserved for Inca royalty. The spring waters are skillfully diverted into aqueducts and pools, creating a serene and functional environment. Today, visitors can explore these well-preserved structures and gain insight into the Inca’s sophisticated engineering and their spiritual connection to nature.
