Moray was a center of Inca agricultural research, and it has been proven that it has up to 20 different microclimates or temperatures. Probably built between 1438 and 1533, this fascinating archaeological site demonstrates the high level of agricultural technology achieved by this settlement.
Salt Maras Peru
45m · Admission ticket included
The Maras salt mines are located 3,000 meters above sea level, an hour and a half from the city of Cusco. These salt mines and their exploitation are as old as the Tahuantinsuyo. Located on the slopes of Cerro Pichingoto are more than 3,000 pools filled with groundwater that flows through the ravine and is then crystallized by the intense heat of the sun. The origin of its source remains a mystery.
Ollantaytambo

The archaeological complex of Ollantaytambo was a military, religious and agricultural center. This fabulous architectural setting is interesting for the size, originality and detail of its structures. It is a typical example of the extraordinary urban planning of the Incas; its narrow, cobbled, winding streets, the ruins scattered throughout, and its agricultural terraces are attractions that stand out in their own right and can be appreciated by visitors in all their splendor. Ollantaytambo is also considered the last surviving Inca city due to the Inca streets and the clothing of its inhabitants that remain.
Pisac

Pisac is another example of how advanced the Inca civilization was in architecture and engineering. Just by looking at the terraces, located in a rugged landscape, one can understand the planning and development of the ancient inhabitants of these lands.
