Three more sites in the Sacred Valley

Moray, where circular terraces in bowls were probably used for experimental crop development.

Bill climbs down the Inca steps built into the terrace walls.

Salinas: salt drying ponds still in use today.

Chinchero ruins, where we had the site almost to ourselves. This shows the foundations of buildings on one of the terraces.

The old church at Chinchero was built on Inca ruins. It is painted with lots of Inca and Christian designs both inside and on its front entrance.
