The most renowned of the Peruvian temples,
the pride of the capital, and the wonder of the empire, was at Cuzco,
where, under the munificence of successive sovereigns,
it had become so enriched, that it received the name of Coricancha,
or "the Place of Gold."
-- William H. Prescott, The History of the Conquest of Peru, 1847
We recommend six nights in Cuzco, Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley of the Incas; allowing two days in Cuzco for the Inca and colonial monuments, two days with overnight in Machu Picchu, and two days for the archaeological sites and native markets in the Sacred Valley. This four-night itinerary combines the two days in Cuzco into one, eliminating the free time on the first afternoon and the second morning, and combines the excursions of the two days in the Sacred Valley into one.
