Baños del Inca
The Incan Baths are natural hot springs located the town of
Baños del Inca, roughly three miles (5km) east of Cajamarca. The
ruins of Incan baths are still visible; however the town is centred
around a modern spa that uses the thermal springs to draw its
water. The water contains a surprising number of minerals, and the
baths are used as a homeopathic treatment for some bone
diseases.

Language
Spanish and Quechua are the official languages, but many
other dialects are spoken. English is spoken only in major tourist
centres and hotels.
Money
The official currency is Nuevo Sol (PEN) divided into 100
céntimos. Visa is the most widely accepted credit card, but all
major international credit cards, including Diners Club and
MasterCard, are accepted in many, but not all, establishments.
Outside Lima facilities may be more limited. Travellers cheques may
also be difficult to exchange in small towns and villages, and
travellers are advised to have cash on hand. US Dollars are the
easiest currency to exchange and plenty of restaurants, hotels and
shops in the main cities accept dollars for payment.
Casas de cambio(exchange bureaux) often give better rates
than hotels and banks and can be found in any town on the tourist
circuit. ATMs are available in the main cities.
