Itinerary
It is a unique archaeological center of its kind in the region. These are depressions or gigantic natural holes in the surface of the land that were used to build in their contours terraces or agricultural platforms Moray platforms.
located northwest of the town of Maras are constituted by about 3000 small wells with an average area of about 5 m², during the dry season they are filled or "irrigated" every 3 days with salt water that emanates from a natural spring located in the part upper wells so that when the water evaporates, the salt contained in it solidifies gradually, then the salt is beaten and thus granulated; the salt will then be packed in plastic sacks and sent to the region's markets; Today that salt is being iodized, which is why its consumption is not harmful.

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.
