Discover the Charm of Plaza San Blas

Getting There

• Car

  If you are driving from the main towns in the South Coast region, head towards Cusco via the Pan-American Highway (Route 1). Once in Cusco, follow signs for Centro Histórico. As you approach the city center, look for Avenida del Sol and turn onto it. Then, take a right onto Cuesta de San Blas. Plaza San Blas will be on your left. Parking may be limited, so consider parking in one of the nearby public lots, which may charge around 5-10 PEN for a few hours.

• Public Transportation

  From nearby towns such as Arequipa or Puno, take a bus to Cusco. Once you arrive in Cusco, you can use local public transport such as the combis (minibuses) or taxis. For taxis, the fare from the bus terminal to Plaza San Blas should be approximately 10-15 PEN. If taking a combi, look for one heading towards Centro Histórico and ask the driver to drop you off near Plaza San Blas. From there, it's a short walk to the plaza.

• Walking

  If you are already in the Centro Histórico area of Cusco, you can easily walk to Plaza San Blas. Start from the Plaza de Armas, head northeast on Avenida el Sol, and then turn left onto Cuesta de San Blas. The walk should take about 15-20 minutes, and you will enjoy the beautiful views of the city along the way.
