Choquechaka street

The cobblestone pathway stretches for 558 meters through the center of Cusco, connecting neighborhoods with traditional markets and residential areas.

The street received its official status in 1919, integrating elements from both the ancient Inca road network and Spanish colonial urban planning.

Local artisans display traditional Peruvian textiles and crafts along the street, maintaining centuries-old techniques passed down through generations.

The 6-meter-wide street provides access to numerous restaurants, shops, and accommodations within walking distance of Cusco's main attractions.

The stone walls bordering the street incorporate precise Inca stonework techniques, with blocks fitted together without mortar in specific sections.
