The Sacred Valley

 
 

Pisac: Precise stonework, possibly an Incan fortress

Ollantaytambo: Site of a great battle between Manco Inca and the Spaniards, led by Hernando Pizarro. The town today has original Quechuan streets and houses, one of which we visited.

Yucay: We stayed in the Posada del Inca in this small town, which had a festival that night.
