Vegetarian Tour: The Inca Trail between Cusco and Machu Picchu in Peru
During Inca times, all roads led to the capital of the Empire, Cusco (which in Quechua means “navel of the world ‘).
Most roads were inherited from pre-Inca cultures of Peru, Ecuador, Chile and parts of Bolivia. Inca roads were used most frequently by messengers, “chasquis”. Some are still in use and others have been replaced or abandoned.
Cusco is one of the greatest archaeological cities in the world, and even their simple ways are majestic. It has been appointed as the Archaeological Capital of South America. In Cusco, Inca walls have been top by Spanish architecture (from the colony), and put together it adds up to centuries of civilization. The City of Cusco in Peru has excellent vegetarian restaurants offering typical vegetarian and vegan meals, delicious fruits and vegetables.
