Itinerary and highlights
CHINCHERO
• It begins with the pick up from the hotel at 07:00 am to go to our first destination "chinchero" where we will visit the archaeological part and the colonial temple.
MORAY.
• It is located 7 km. from Maras, two hours from the city of Cusco along the Chinchero route, is one of the most spectacular visits where there are circular platforms of different sizes. They are terraces of agricultural experimentation and places of concentration of feminine energy, for which it is considered as a magnetic center of the Pachamama.
SALINERAS DE MARAS.
• Located northwest of the town of Maras Known by some as "salt mines" they are made up of about 3000 small wells. Salt has been obtained since pre-Hispanic times through a system of drying the salty water in the sun that comes from an underground stream. Once the water has evaporated, the salt is ready for sale.
• We will return to Cusco (02:00 PM)
