SACREDVALLEY OF THE INCAS TOUR 1 DAY

During the Inca times, the Sacred Valley was an important agricultural centre where the unique large grain maize was, and still is, grown. This tour passes through beautiful cities that are a syncretic blend of cultures, art and architecture

P’ISAQ ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE

is one of the most important archaeological region. Possibly its name comes from a very common type of Bird in this area known as “p’isaqa.” Some scholars suggest that the pre-Columbian city was in the form of a “p’isaqa” representing the local faun. Today there are a colonial Town named P’isaq.

in the Inca City there is a famous Local Market ,full of crafts and local products.

OLLANTAYTAMBO

The archaeological complex of Ollantaytambo was a strategic military, religious and agricultural center. The architectural scene is exceptional in its the size, style and originality of its buildings. For the Quechua language, the name comes from the word

Ollanta (which is the name of an Inca captain, whose story was saved as an oral tradition, and written as a drama of Antonio Valdez Urubamba priest in mid-eighteenth century) Also a Spanish derivation of the word tampu (Tambo)Quechua, which means

“City that offers accommodation, food and comfort to passengers.”

Agricultural activity in this area benefited from the presence of the Patacancha creek, where there are large terraces that currently are damaged and abandoned.

CHINCHERO

The typical Chinchero is a Inca city, the conquerors wanted to “civilize” and establish their culture, but never succeeded, because they fully resisted. Today you can see this resistance in its inhabitants, as they inhabit the Inca constructions almost intact, in the same place where their ancestors lived and formed the largest and most prosperous civilization in America.

the Rainbow City is located 28 km. northwest of the Cusco city, over 3,762 meters, at an intermediate location between the highlands and warm valley, surrounded by snow-capped Salkantay, Veronica and Soray. The view from here is awesome. Chinchero was chosen by the Inca Tupac Yupanqui to establish his residence
