, which
has been inhabited continuously since precolonial times. Once the capital of the Inca em-
pire, Cuzco also serves as the gateway to Machu Picchu. Mystic, commercial and chaotic,
this unique city is still a stunner. Where else would you find ornately dressed women walk-
ing llamas on leashes, a museum for magical plants, and the wildest nightlife in the high
Andes?
