Our first stop will be Moray, an impressive Inca archaeological site famous for its circular agricultural terraces. These terraces descend deep into the earth and were likely used by the Incas as an agricultural laboratory. Different levels created distinct microclimates, allowing experimentation with crops such as corn, potatoes, and quinoa. During the visit, we will walk around the terraces, learn about Inca farming techniques, and enjoy the panoramic views of the surrounding valley.

Visitors will have time to walk along the viewpoints, take photos, and observe the traditional salt extraction process.
