San Blas, Cusco downtown district today, takes on a personality for their own narrow and twisting alleyways, many of them steep zigzag between beautiful colonial houses with white walls and blue balconies, built on Inca stone walls adorned with pots of geraniums and drop ceilings, creating a special environment that will delight the stranger. In the Plaza San Blas is a church that is believed to be built on an Inca shrine dedicated to the worship of God "Illapa" which consists of the Lightning, Thunder and Lightning. Inside is a famous and symbolic pulpit, beautifully carved cedar wood as a watermark in one piece and by experts in the management of the gouge, dating back almost 400 years. It in ancient times, was one of the most important areas of the city and its name was "T'oqo-kachi" ( "T'oqo" hollow, "kachi" salt), instead like the others, inhabited by the nobility Quechua: "The Mitimaes" (ancient Inca craftsmen of the time), people who came from the four "Yours" (4 big states Tawantinsuyo). The Mitimaes were human groups which pilgrims traveling along the mission ordered by the Gods do "AYNI" which is the art of giving and receiving. Every Nation, Tribe or Community from the great empire should then send the best craftsmen, the wise men of their own cultures in a long pilgrimage to Cuzco and the Sacred City. His duty was simple: "share all their knowledge and learn all that it was not known. During the colonial period and until today, has kept this tradition of transferring knowledge of any art form from generation to generation family, being in San Blas various workshops and family tents, offering their varied manifestations of folk art as imagery, silver carving, wood carving and stone sculpture, dolls, gold mascararía, utilitarian pottery, architecture, grotesque and many more, even more decorating and making the environment more attractive to visit this place, which is also deservedly named The "Barrio de los Artistas" Eureka Hostel, maintains this colonial-style architecture, combined with the stylized art of the Inca Empire, taxed on the walls of their rooms.
