There is
no way you can leave Cusco without visiting Chinchero, this little
town is quite important because there is the possibility of seeing the
exchange of products instead of buying or selling for money on the
sunday market, this was a tradition taught by the inkas, caused by the
absence of an official currency. It also has a fantastic church where
you can appreciate some artworks from the Cusqueñan Art School as
well as great ornaments which show off its decoration.
