We will appreciate the extraordinary architectural ensemble of the main square of Peru — Plaza de Armas, where we will see the Cathedral, the Presidential Palace and the Municipality. A little behind the Cathedral is the unique monastery of St. Francisco, whose intricate galleries will plunge any traveler into the era of the conquest of the South American continent by the Spaniards.

After breakfast, visit the ancient Inca agricultural complex — Moray. This is the only place in the world where you can find round agricultural terraces, so it is often confused with a UFO landing site. We continue our way to the salt mines of Maras.

In total, there are more than 3,000 salt pools for evaporating salt, which has been mined here since the time of the ancient Incas, and its bizarre form of the complex resembles milk-chocolate terraces from afar. The distance to the two complexes is very small, they are located about an hour’s drive from Cusco.
