This neighborhood of craftspeople, narrow streets and hidden corners harbors many of the secrets of the imperial city. 

 

Home  to traditional old families engaged in folk art, this is a paradise of stone and colonial-era houses, lost in time and picturesque beneath the bright Cusco sky. 

 

At night it is a different story. The neighborhood is transformed into a kaleidoscope of partying, color and music that is truly irresistible.

 

Without a doubt, it is not enough to visit San Blas: it must be lived.
