In this video, we'll learn about the purposes and possible locations of Cusco's ancient sun towers, which may have once stood on the mountain ridges that surround the city. These structures would have guided the Incas' study of astronomical events and played a prominent role during ceremonies in the central plaza. Evidently, they were destroyed during the conquest, as nothing remains of the towers but early Spanish accounts.
