Interior view of the temple and convent of Santo Domingo, Cuzco, Peru. Built where the Incas centuries before built their temple of the sun, Coricancha, one of the most important sacred archaeological complexes of that people. It was destroyed by the Spanish conquerors who built the Convent and Church of Santo Domingo over it. The Spaniards took advantage of the foundation of Inca stones to erect colonial buildings. The great earthquake of 1950 destroyed the construction of the Dominican Fathers and exposed the Temple of the Sun, which firmly resisted the earthquake, thanks to Inca construction techniques.
