| The Moray archaeological site, located in the Sacred Valley of Peru, is a marvel of Inca engineering, set amidst a stunning natural environment. The site is renowned for its concentric terraces, believed to have been used by the Incas for agricultural experimentation in different microclimates. Surrounded by towering mountains and lush valleys, Moray's terraces are an impressive testament to Incan agricultural knowledge. The surrounding landscape offers breathtaking views of the Andes, providing insight into the ecological diversity that the Incas utilized for farming. Nearby, the Maras Salt Mines add another layer of historical depth to the region, showcasing Inca methods of salt extraction that have lasted for centuries. Moray's position in the Sacred Valley makes it an integral part of the greater Inca heritage, blending architecture and nature in a seamless integration. |
