In the center of Cusco is the Plaza de Armas (every town has a central plaza). On Christmas Eve , the plaza is packed with vendors and buyers preparing for the Navidad (Christmas) celebration, which starts with a big dinner at midnight on Christmas! I went down to the plaza for a few hours with a couple friends, to get into the spirit of Navidad. Above are some of the sights. Some will appreciate the fact that the pile of food in front of the Quechua lady with the white hat (bottom left) includes guinea pig, a delicacy in Peru.
