5. Coricancha

Qorikancha was the most important and elaborate temple of the Inca Empire. Qorikancha means golden courtyard and at the time of the Incas, the walls were covered in solid gold sheets.

Marvel at the original stonework, walk down corridors and through the chambers of Qorikancha and find clues to its former splendor.
