Chinchero

Maras

Zona Arqueologica Moray

After visiting Maras, we are going head to the ruins of Moray, which are made up of three coliseums, thought to have been used by the Incas as a sort of open air crop laboratory. The coliseums consist of several enormous terraced circular depressions, the largest of which is about 30 meters (98 feet) deep. Admire these terraces which are arranged in concentric circles and are reminiscent of an ancient Greek theater.

The Sacred Valley of the Incas has extensive fertile lands, perfect for cultivation, as well as impressive archaeological sites. This place will show us the lifestyle of the Inca Empire and its advanced construction techniques.

After the tour you will be taken to El Regocijo Square.
