I'd say more Roman than Greek, but I see where your train of thought is going...

In the picture with the Peruvian and Incan flags, I thought you had accidentally stuck a picture in of Toronto's Church and Wellesly neighbourhood.

There's no buildings?
In the other hand, it's a beautiful view!

agreed, that would only make the place look western and thats not really good in Cuzco's case. Cuzco is one of the most beautiful cities in the planet. Honestly

Half Inca's architecture and half spanish, they built churches and buildings over the Incas Palaces.
