Planetarium Cusco
We recommend booking in advance, as last-minute reservations are subject to availability. The experience begins with a meeting at Plaza Regocijo at 5:30 PM, followed by a transfer to the Cusco Planetarium, located in Llaullipata on the road to Sacsayhuamán. Upon arrival, you will enjoy an introduction to Inca astronomy and the Andean worldview. Next, you will enter the projection dome to explore the Southern Hemisphere sky, including Western constellations and the dark constellations recognized by the Incas. Weather permitting, the experience concludes with telescope observation, where you may see the Moon, planets, and stars. Finally, we will return to Cusco's historic city center.
