A day of sightseeing to the Incan Moray Agricultural research center and the Maray Salt Pans.


Discovered as recently as 1931, this extensive Roman Amphitheater  style of terraces was used as an experimental station to see which crops would grow where.  The Moray Terraces, at 11500 ft above sea level  as with all Incan sights have their own irrigation system are  
The scenery around the Moray Terraces.
Close to The Moray Terraces are the Maras Salt pans owned by 250 families who work the 5000 pools between the hours of  6.30am to 10.30am when the sun is not so strong, producing three kinds of salt,white skimmed from the top, the fashionable  pink salt coming from the middle and brown being the cheapest coming from the bottom of the salt pans.
