View of the Walls of Saksaywaman, Cusco, Cusco Region, Peru, South America

Dry stone walls were constructed of huge stones and boulders were cut to fit them together tightly without mortar. In 1983, Cusco and Saksaywaman together were added to the UNESCO World Heritage List for recognition and protection
