My Side of the Mesa

Sacred Valley

We grabbed a group tour to the Sacred Valley. We visited Chinchero, Moray, the Maras Salt Mines, Ollantaytambo, and Pisac.

Moray was an agricultural lab where Incas grew plants on different terraces to test temperature, soil types, etc. The temperature difference between the top and the bottom is 15 degrees.
