Photo of the Day: Cusco Plaza de Armas at Night
| Taken by Jason | 4 Comments » | Photo of the Day
Cusco is one of the most beautiful cities in all of Latin America. Surrounded by buildings built on the foundation of the great Inca empire you get a sense of ancient history. Cusco stays up 24 hours as you can see in this busy late night photo at the Plaza de Armas.

Great night shoot! Did you use a tripod on for this photo? I have to say i was surprised at how much night life there was in Cusco, you could party all night (for next to nothing if you get those free drink coupons on the street) in 15+ different bars, all within walking distance of each other.
Hey Troy, I believe I had to have it sitting on something, I just don’t remember what. I know, you had that entire free drink thing worked out pretty good. It is pretty crazy there, considering they party till morning.
Cusco is one my favorite cities in Latin America. A really beautiful place! Was there in 2024 and hope to get back soon. It’s a great launching pad for the Sacred Valley (the Pisac market my our favorite) and beyond. Thanks for posting an awesome shot!
Love your photography! Another evocative photo of the day!
