Rute

1. We will pick you up from your accommodations in Cusco around 08:30am. First we will visit Moray which is an archaeological site . The site contains unusual Inca ruins, mostly consisting of several enormous terraced circular depressions, the largest of which is approximately 30 m deep. As with many other Inca sites, it also has a sophisticated irrigation system. This Inca site exhibits numerous circular agricultural terraces built by the Incas in natural sinkholes on a limestone plateau overlooking the Urubamba valley. Next, we will visit the Colonial village of Maras. The town is well known for its nearby salt evaporation ponds, in use since Inca times. The salt-evaporation ponds are up-slope, less than a kilometer west of the town. This is an important salt mine site exploited during Inca time and later during the Colonial time and until today. Return to Cusco about 3pm. Drop off 2 blocks from main square.

About Cusco

Cusco, den gamle inkahovedstad højt oppe i Perus Andesbjerge, blander massive stenmure med koloniale kirker og er porten til Machu Picchu.

Plaza de Armas er byens hjerte, indrammet af katedralen og jesuitterkirken La Compañía. Inkamurværk er bevaret overalt i centrum, mest berømt ved Qorikancha, solens tempel, hvor spanierne byggede et kloster, og i stenen med tolv hjørner i gaden Hatun Rumiyoc. San Blas, håndværkernes kvarter, klatrer stejlt med værksteder og caféer.
