    Qorikancha

    Qoricancha, ubicado en Cusco, Perú, fue el templo más importante del Imperio Inca, dedicado al dios Sol (Inti). Su nombre significa "Recinto de oro", ya que sus muros estaban recubiertos con láminas de oro. Tras la conquista española, fue parcialmente destruido y sobre su estructura se construyó el Convento de Santo Domingo. Hoy, Qoricancha es un símbolo del mestizaje cultural y una muestra impresionante de la arquitectura inca y colonial.
