An interesting place to visit. I love the diorama of how the Inca temple would have looked like before being altered. The Temple of the Sun is impressive. Full review by 808giggles

A highlight of the visit to Cusco and a phenomenal example of cultural appropriation and the heavy handedness of conquest. Full review by rkigervaron

You would walk right by this Inca site given it is inside a cathedral. There is an entrance fee that is not cheap. Not a lot to see of the Inca site as it is mostly be taken over by the Church. That … Full review by AirSchis

Besides seeing the start of Inti Raymi at Temple of the Sun (Qorikancha), did you also see the festiviities at Saqsayhuaman? I'm wondering whether it's worth paying (at least $255-275 per ticket) to see the conclusion of Inti Raymi at Saqsayhuaman.

Did not go beyond Cusco that day. Thousands of people. Personal choice on spending that amount of money.
How do you find a guide for the Santo Domingo Convent? Thanks!

Can someone who has actually been there around Santo Domingo church/ qorikancha on Sunday tell me whether they're open on sunday morning at all, and if so what time? I get totally conflicting information from my net search and guidebook, with some saying they're open as usual, some saying they're open from 2 pm etc. My current schedule only allows me to be in Cusco till noon on Sunday, so if it won't be open till 2 pm i probably have to reschedule my flight, although that means i will have to skip Lima, which i'd like to avoid if possible. Thanks in advance!

i don't know what time it is open but i loved seeing it from the inside. i didn't have a guide but still enjoyed it. there are signs on the walls that you can read. you can also get a guide inside if you wish. i loved the inca stonework and then the church on top...sad but beautiful.
