CUSCO: LAND FOR ALL<br />
CUSCO SOCIETY, LIKE ALL<br />
OTHERS, FOLLOWS A SET<br />
OF UNSPOKEN RULES<br />
BASED ON COMPLEX<br />
SOCIAL PROCESSES<br />
THAT BEGAN CENTURIES<br />
AGO. THE CORE RULES<br />
CAME FROM BOTH THE<br />
PRE COLOMBIAN AND<br />
SPANISH CULTURES, AND<br />
TODAY THEY ARE JOINED<br />
IN A RICH TAPESTRY<br />
OF ANCIENT BELIEFS,<br />
RITUALS AND TODAY’S<br />
ANDEAN LIFE. AT THE<br />
SAME TIME, CUSCO IS AT<br />
THE HEART OF PERUVIAN<br />
TOURISM, SOMETHING<br />
THAT TURNS THE CITY<br />
INTO THE SPACE WHERE<br />
CITIZENS OF THE WORLD<br />
COME TOGETHER WITHIN<br />
THE MYSTICISM OF THE<br />
SACRED VALLEY AND THE<br />
ANCIENT HISTORY OF<br />
PERU.<br />
