• Pisac Market - Known for its charm and scenic beauty, Pisac offers elaborate crafts at its fairs on Thursdays and Sundays, steeped in a rich and colorful tradition. Pisaq is a top destination in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, renowned for its remarkable archaeological sites, comparable only to Machu Picchu. It boasts an extensive system of Incan terraces that rise up to the cliffs, resembling vast hanging gardens. Despite the passage of centuries, these terraces are still used for agriculture. The archaeological site, located at a high elevation, is composed of various neighborhoods. The Intiwatana, the largest pre-Columbian cemetery on the continent, along with its cultivation terraces (andenes) and watchtower turrets, are notable features. Pisaq attracts locals from nearby towns and thousands of visitors. A highlight of these fairs is the parade of the authorities or Varayocs, who come to the town to attend mass in Quechua, the region’s primary language. At the top are the Inca ruins of Pisaq, featuring an extensive system of terraces and an important stone solar clock, or Intihuatana. Today, Pisaq is one of the most significant Archaeological Parks in the region and is a premier tourist destination; its name possibly derives from a type of partridge common in the area known as “p’isaqa.” Some experts suggest that the pre-Hispanic city was shaped like a “p’isaqa,” representing the local fauna.

• Archaeological Park Ollantaytambo - Ollantaytambo is a charming village that retains the design of Inca structures, situated at an altitude of 9,160 feet in the Urubamba province. Among its most impressive attractions are the ceremonial temple dedicated to water worship and a fortress that guarded the valley’s entrance to fend off invasions. The temple features a series of terraces stacked atop one another, which visitors ascend via a steep stairway. The fortress is a stone colossus built between two mountains to protect the valley. The area also includes the Temple of Inti (the sun god), Incamisana, the Ñustas’ (princesses’) baths, the Cachiccata funerary towers, and a group of tiered, steep terraces on a hillside. Ollantaytambo also features the mountain called Pinculluna or Tunupa, which contains remnants of Inca architectural structures that appear to have been a storehouse for various foodstuffs. Ollantaytambo serves as a gathering place for nearby communities, such as the Huayruros de Willoc, who are recognizable by their red and black ponchos and hats.

• Complejo Arqueologico Chinchero - Chinchero is a quaint Andean Indian village located high on the windswept plains of Anta at 3,765 meters, about 30 kilometers from Cusco. It offers stunning views overlooking the Sacred Valley of the Incas, with the Cordillera Vilcabamba and the snow-capped peak of Salkantay dominating the western horizon. Chinchero is believed to be the mythical birthplace of the rainbow. Its main tourist attraction is its vibrant Sunday market, which is less tourist-oriented than the market at Pisac. The village primarily consists of mud brick (adobe) houses, and locals continue their daily activities in traditional attire. The village may have been an important town during Inca times. The most striking remnant from this period is the massive stone wall in the main plaza, featuring ten trapezoidal niches. The construction of the wall and many other ruins and agricultural terraces (still in use) are attributed to Inca Tupac Yupanqui, who possibly used Chinchero as a country retreat. In the main plaza, an adobe colonial church, dating from the early seventeenth century, has been built on the foundations of an Inca temple or palace. The ceiling and walls are adorned with beautiful floral and religious designs. The church is open on Sundays for mass. A half-hour walk from the village leads to Lake Piuri, which once supplied water to Cusco. It takes about three hours to walk around the lake, passing through small picturesque villages.
