Personification of Caledonia by the Victorian artist William Hole. Caledonia is the Latin name given by the Romans to the land in today's Scotland north of their province of Britannia, beyond the frontier of their empire. The etymology of the name is probably from a P-Celtic source. Its modern usage is as a romantic or poetic name for Scotland as a whole, comparable with Hibernia for Ireland and Cambria for Wales.

Address: Plaza de Armas, Cusco, Peru, PE. Construction of the city's famous landmark cathedral began in 1559, although it took almost an entire century until it was finally completed. Cusco Cathedral stands on the site of the Inca Palace of Viracocha, and many of its blocks were taken from nearby Saqsaywaman. The cathedral is sandwiched either side by the Iglesia de Jesus Maria and the Iglesia del Triunfo, and contains a wealth of exceptional colonial art.
