خط السير

  1. Have a morning pick-up from your hotel and continue on a 40 minutes ride enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Andes until arriving Moray, an admirable Inca experimental farm, where a natural depression has been transformed in enormous terraces superimposed in concentric forms with a shape of a great coliseum, achieving up to 150 meters in different height levels. The purpose of these depressions is still uncertain; altough is considered that perhaps Moray was an Inca agricultural experiment station. As with many other Inca sites, it also has a sophisticated irrigation system. Discover more about it during your visit.

  2. Next, explore the Maras Salt-mines, also called Salinas de Maras, which have been used since Inca times. People channel the salt water that bubbles to the surface from a spring called Qoripujio towards men-made wells. From the exposure to the sun, water evaporates and the salt remains on the surface to be transported later to the market to be sold. The view of this complex of nearly 3000 salt wells is spectacular.

  3. Local people happily demonstrate the ancient textile techniques to visitors, even allowing them to participate with them. After this visit, it’s time to take the transportation back to Cusco downtown.

About Cusco

Cusco, the old Inca capital high in the Peruvian Andes, blends massive stone walls with colonial churches and is the gateway to Machu Picchu.

The Plaza de Armas is the heart of the city, framed by the cathedral and the Jesuit church of La Compañía. Inca stonework survives throughout the centre, most famously at the Qorikancha, the sun temple on which the Spanish built a monastery, and in the twelve-angled stone on Hatun Rumiyoc street. San Blas, the artisans' quarter, climbs steeply with workshops and cafés.

Top-ranked sights in Cusco: Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo Ruins.
