2. The archaeological site of Moray is located 61 km. northeast of the imperial city of Cusco and at 3,500 m.a.s.l. The large Inca agricultural laboratory consists of four giant holes of natural formation on the surface of the earth, where the Incas built circular terraces of different sizes with their respective irrigation channels. The climatic condition and other characteristics make this place an important center of domestication and acclimatization of crops for human consumption.

3. The colonial population of Maras is located 7 km from the Archaeological Park of Maras Moray where we will pass in the northwest direction where we will find the famous salt mines or salt mines. Within this small valley we can find a little more than 3,000 wells that measure an average of 5 square meters each. The salt water comes from a natural spring very close to the place, which have been exploited since pre-Columbian times. Since 1980, the families of Maras have extracted salt, building more poses which have become a very important attraction.

About Cusco

Cusco, de oude Inca-hoofdstad hoog in de Peruaanse Andes, combineert enorme stenen muren met koloniale kerken en is de poort naar Machu Picchu.

De Plaza de Armas is het hart van de stad, omlijst door de kathedraal en de jezuïetenkerk La Compañía. Inca-metselwerk is overal in het centrum bewaard gebleven, het bekendst bij de Qorikancha, de zonnetempel waarop de Spanjaarden een klooster bouwden, en in de steen met twaalf hoeken in de straat Hatun Rumiyoc. San Blas, de wijk van de ambachtslieden, klimt steil omhoog met werkplaatsen en cafés.
