The Sacred Valley is located in the region of Cusco and is the gateway to Machu Picchu.
It includes the whole region between Pisac and Ollantaytamo and is home to an amazing landscape, as it is surrounded by the impressing Andes and formed by the Urubamba River.
The most beautiful places to visit are the town of Pisac with its ruins and the everyday market, the town and ruins of Ollantaytambo, as well as the circular terraces of Moray and the Salt Terraces of Maras, all remainders of the Incan times and their dedication to agriculture.
The Sacred Valley is also home to several Andean Communities, like the Amaru Community, which still preserves ancient traditions and rituals. For instance, most of the communities are still used to speak Quechua, the language indigenous to the Andes, and use traditional weaving and harvesting techniques.
Visitors looking for a timeout from the hectic all-day life and the busy city of Cusco will find a place to relax in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, while adventurous travelers will get the chance to choose between some of the several activities available, such as biking, kayaking, horseback riding and trekking.
