Half-Day Private Tour to Moray and Maras' Terraces and Salt Mines
Overview
Explore the ancient marvels of Moray and Maras on this tour. The Moray terraces feature mysterious concentric circular depressions that some scholars believe served as an agricultural research centre. These terraces, with their varying temperatures at different levels, may have simulated diverse ecological conditions across the empire.
The Maras salt mines offer an impressive and surreal landscape. These vast salt deposits played a crucial role in the empire's economy, serving as a valuable trade commodity. The stark white terraces against the backdrop of the Andean landscape create a visually striking scene.
This tour showcases the advanced understanding of agriculture and natural resource management in ancient times. You'll see how these sophisticated systems supported one of the ancient world's most significant civilisations. At the conclusion of the tour, you will return to your hotel.
