Rute

1. We will be leaving from our office to Maras. Maras are home to over 3600 Salt Wells. Strategically dug into the mountainside, thousands of shallow pools filled with saltwater eventually evaporate and leave behind the crystallized salt, a process that has been practiced for more than 500 years. It’s believed that the salt pans were originally constructed by the Wari civilization, which predates the Inca. However, the Inca saw the economic opportunity in harvesting the salt of Maras and expanded the salt pans further up the mountainside. We will then be visiting the iconic, Moray agricultural terraces. Moray is 4.5 miles from the town of Maras and 39 miles from Cusco. The main feature that impresses travelers is its system of circular agricultural terraces, which are up to 330 feet deep. They are build using retaining walls connected by an irrigation system. Moray can be considered a crop lab– they used the terraces to create micro-climates and grow various products.

About Cusco

Cusco, den gamle inkahovedstaden høyt oppe i Perus Andesfjell, blander massive steinmurer med koloniale kirker og er porten til Machu Picchu.

Plaza de Armas er byens hjerte, innrammet av katedralen og jesuittkirken La Compañía. Inkamurverk er bevart over hele sentrum, mest kjent ved Qorikancha, solens tempel hvor spanjolene bygde et kloster, og i steinen med tolv hjørner i gaten Hatun Rumiyoc. San Blas, håndverkernes kvarter, klatrer bratt med verksteder og kaféer.
