Itinerary of your trip Maras – Moray – Chinchero Tour
- Day 1 Maras – Moray – Chinchero Tour
Maras – Moray – Chinchero Tour
To start the Maras Moray & Chinchero Tour, we will pick you up from your hotel around 8 AM and head to Moray. The drive is about 1 hour and 20 minutes, and it is beautiful. You will drive through the snow-capped peaks of the Andes, through lush yellow fields of wheat, past some villages.
Finally, you will arrive at the fascinating display of terraces in Moray. Moray boasts three amphitheater-like terraces made by the Incas. These terraces, which are carved deep into the earth in a bowl shape, were thought to be used to determine the optimal conditions for growing crops.
When you are done exploring Moray, you will head to the salt mines of Maras, which is about 2 miles away. This village is known as a former salt-producing center that is thought to date back to pre-Inca times. There are over 3000 salt pools all carved into the mountainside, being filled daily by a little stream of water.
The last place to visit will be Chinchero. Here we can admire the well-preserved Inka walls of the main square as well as the many altars. We will also visit the beautiful colonial church, unique for its interior artwork and imagery. Moving on, we will participate in a wonderful introduction and learning experience of the art of Andean textiles; throughout the afternoon, we will become acquainted with the wisdom of Andean weavings as maintained since long before Inka times.
If you want to see something different from ruins, this is your tour! The area is amazing and spectacularly beautiful. Once you are satisfied with the visit, you will head back to the city in time to enjoy some lunch on your own.
