The following day we actually ventured outside the hotel to have another look around Cusco and we did find a few places to visit that we hadn’t already seen. There was a museum underneath Coricancha and an art gallery further up the road – but we’d run out of places to see too quickly. There were plenty of small markets in Peru hidden away down alleyways and from one of them I bought a really nice hand-carved wooden mask for S/. 20 (which equates to about £4.00). The afternoon soon went by after relaxing in the Plaza de Armas for a couple of hours. There were two problems with that though: firstly the heat, and secondly, the number of times we’d be bothered by street traders.
