Moray
Moray is one of Cusco’s most unique archaeological sites. Its distinctive circular terraces descend into the earth like an amphitheater, creating microclimates that the Incas are believed to have used for agricultural experimentation. This remarkable site reflects the depth of Inca knowledge and their ability to adapt farming to the challenges of the Andean landscape.

Salinas de Maras
The Maras Salt Mines are a striking sight, with hundreds of salt terraces cascading down a mountainside. Used since Inca times, these pools are part of a traditional and sustainable way of harvesting salt from the natural springs that flow through the area. The contrast between the bright white pools and the surrounding landscape creates an unforgettable view and a living connection to the ancestral practices of the Andes.

Archaeological Park Ollantaytambo
Ollantaytambo is a historic treasure that blends impressive Inca ruins with the charm of a living town. Known for its archaeological complex and imposing terraced temple, it once served as both a ceremonial and strategic center during Inca times. Its cobblestone streets and colonial buildings add a picturesque touch, while the surrounding mountains frame this site offering a true window into the grandeur of the Inca past.
