Itinerary

  Chinchero

  This village is located 28 km from Cusco, on the tarmac route to Urubamba. Here are the remains of what was the royal estate of Tupac Inca Yupanqui, a beautiful colonial temple built on Inca foundations. Its main attraction, however, is its artisanal market, originally dedicated to the bartering of agricultural products between the commoners of the valley and those of the upper parts. Today, the market is a true show of color and movement that fascinates visitors with its offer of crafts and textiles made in the purest pre-Columbian style.

  Moray

  It is 7 km from Maras and 1 hour from Cusco city by the Chinchero route. It is one of the most spectacular visits, where circular platforms of different sizes are observed. These were terraces of agricultural experimentation and are also considered places of concentration of female energy, so they are recognized as a magnetic center of the Pachamama.

  Salinas de Maras

  Located northwest of the town of Maras, they are known by some as “salt mines” and are made up of about 3,000 small wells. Salt has been obtained since pre-Hispanic times through a sun-drying system of saltwater from an underground stream. Once the water has evaporated, the salt is ready for sale.
