Museo Historico Regional

Included in the BTC

This is the house of the famous Inca Garcilaso de la Vega Chimpu Ocllo. Even if you don’t have an hour or two for the museum, at least stop in to see the courtyard.

The downstairs has pre-Hispanic artifacts and upstairs has colonial artifacts.

This is one of the museums included in the Boleto Turístico de Cusco and the best museum on that list. If you bought the BTC for the Inca ruins and don’t want to pay more entry fees, put this on your list.
