Itinerary
It is a part time tour. It starts in the morning and ends in the early afternoon, around 02:30 p.m.
They will leave the hotel around 08h10 towards the village of Chinchero, soon after the Salineiras de Maras and finally the archaeological site of Moray.
Maras is a village located 48 kilometers from Cusco and is situated at an altitude of 3028 meters above sea level. Maras was an important town during the colonization, because it supplied salt to all the southern mountain range.
The Salineira de Maras (Salt Mines) presents thousands of salt pools, from where the natural salt that comes from the mountain “Qaqawiñay” is extracted. The salt of maras is extracted from the Inca epoch to the present day.
Moray is situated at an altitude of 3385 meters above sea level. Moray presents huge circular terraces (called Andenes), which overlap concentrically in the form of an Amphitheater. These terraces had the function of a large agricultural laboratory, where the Incas experimented and obtained incredible improvements in agriculture, which was the main labor activity and the basis of their economic development.
In each of these terraces it is possible to check different microclimates. In the lower parts of the terraces the highest temperatures can be observed and vice versa, making it an excelente laboratory for perfecting crops.
