Complejo Arqueologico ChincheroAfter transporting us for approx. 1 hour, we will arrive at the town of Chinchero. Chinchero is a small indigenous Andean village located high in the windswept plains of Anta at 3765 m, about 30 km from Cusco. There are beautiful views of the Sacred Valley of the Incas, with the Vilcabamba Mountain Range and the snow-capped peak of Salkantay dominating the western horizon. Chinchero is believed to be the mythical birthplace of the rainbow. Its main attraction for tourism is its colorful Sunday market, which is much less tourist-oriented than the Pisac market. The town is mainly made up of mud brick (adobe) houses, and locals still go about their business in traditional dress. The town may have been an important town in Inca times. The most striking vestige of this period is the enormous stone wall in the main square that has ten trapezoidal niches.
-
MorayAfter half an hour of transportation we will arrive at our next destination, Moray; Everywhere you look in Cusco, you can see how advanced the Incas were in their agricultural techniques, such as the terrace system and irrigation through aqueducts. In Moray, for example, they used circular terraces that demonstrate the high level of culture that the Inca civilization reached. Moray is 4.5 miles from the city 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 built using retaining walls connected by an irrigation system. Moray can be considered a cultivation laboratory: they used the terraces to create microclimates and grow various products.
-
MarasAfter half an hour of transportation, we will now arrive at the salt mines, or the famous "salt pools" of Maras located in the rural community of Pichingoto. This site is highly recommended for photography lovers due to its impressive landscape that extends in all its splendor. It is also perfect for hikers and mountain bikers, as this trail connects the salt mines with the towns of Tarabamba and Pichingoto. Highlights of this area include the Moray archaeological site, a kind of amphitheater made up of several circular terraces. Also worth visiting is the Tiobamaba Sanctuary, a colonial church built in adobe that houses paintings from Cusco such as The Last Supper.
-
UrubambaAfter approximately 45 min. transportation, we will arrive at the City of Urubamba, where we will have a rest and lunch period. We will enjoy a buffet lunch with a variety of national dishes and also typical local dishes, all accompanied by soft Andean music.
-
OllantaytamboAfter 1 hour of transportation we arrive at the town of Ollantaytambo, a charming town that preserves the designs of the Inca buildings located at an altitude of 9160 feet in the province of Urubamba. Among the most impressive attractions of this place are the ceremonial temple in worship of water and a fortress that guarded the entrance to the valley to repel any invasion. The temple has a set of terraces on top of each other that visitors climb via a steep staircase. The fortress is a stone colossus that was built between two mountains to protect the valley. The area is also home to the Temple of the Inti (sun god), Incamisana, the baths of the Ñustas (princesses), the Cachiccata funerary towers and a group of very steep, stepped terraces on a hillside.
-
PisacAfter approx. 45 min transport The fascinating stone block walls of Pisac show a balanced proportion, from their size to the perfect joints of each stone, forming a wonderful architectural complex that captivates visitors in the Sacred Valley. The word Pisac has a Quechua origin that means partridge, a chicken-like bird that lives in the area. According to theories, this complex was slightly similar to the "Real Estate" of the Inca Pachacutec, that is why it has a variety of facilities such as terraces, a ceremonial room, palaces, walls and towers, all connected to each other, without any type of amalgamation. Intihuatana Known as the most important ceremonial and religious site in Pisac, it has buildings made of sedimentary rocks.
