When I first moved to Washington state I did not get the obsession with coffee and Starbucks. Nearly 14 years later I’m as addicted to Starbucks just like a lot of other Washingtonians. However, my beverage of choice is Unsweetened Well-Shaken Black Ice Tea, instead of coffee.
When I had a layover in Lima the airport had a Starbucks…I was a very happy girl. I assumed Cuzco would be much too remote, but I was wrong. I spotted it my first day in Plaza De Armas. The tea was not quite the same, but the Mocha Fraps were terrific.
I’m sure there are a lot of examples of Starbucks locations that are stunning, but I’m not sure any of them can beat the one in Cuzco (although that sounds like a new travel mission…find the most beautiful Starbucks).
Starbucks Cuzco Exterior
Starbucks Cuzco Interior
From the interior (as long as you don’t look out the windows) it looked like a regular Starbucks.
Starbucks Cuzco Views
The best part about the Starbucks in Cuzco was the views from the veranda (most notably Plaza De Armas and La Catedral). Wow!…was probably the best description.
Even the view from the back windows was pretty great.
I so wish I was there…It looks beautiful!
It’s is beautiful, but my mojo is a bit low. I think it’s because I haven’t had a hurried scheduled since getting here. My first activity is tomorrow.
