The Sacred Valley of the Andes gives Cuzco a dramatic setting and a strong connection to Peru’s highland landscape. Near the Huatanay and Urubamba rivers, the city serves as the capital and largest urban centre of both Cusco Province and Cusco Department. It has long played a major cultural, economic and political role in Peru.
