be able to see when visiting the sacred
valley
If there is something
calling the attention of Cusco, it is its
contrasts. When you are at the centre of the
city, walking by its mischievous and
mysterious narrow streets or sitting in the
square, it is hard to imagine that the
impressive adjoining mountains can shelter
such beautiful landscape similar to the one
in the Sacred Valley. Few places in the
Tahuantinsuyo could compete against the
beauty and wealthy of this valley, for this
reason it received that name. Its character
of "sacred" has survived the pass of the
time and that magic continues seducing the
visitors. Most of them, surrendered to its
enchants, decide to leave everything and
settle under the shadow of the eucalyptus,
at the bank of the Urubamba.
The Sacred Valley has become one of the most
important tourist centers in the country.
Apart from the incomparable historic wealth,
the area of Urubamba offers infinitive
possibilities to enjoy for the tourist:
trekking, thermal baths, rafts or kayaks
rides, paragliding or hang gliding, horsing,
climbing, etc. Lately they have developed
participating tourist programmes inviting
the visitor, for instance, to work in a
terrace or collect salt from the salt pools.
The Sacred Valley also holds two of the most
important handicraft markets of Cusco: Pisac
and Chinchero.
Although the tourist infrastructure has
grown meaningfully in the last years and
today we offer a variety of accommodation
and restaurant facilities, the valley has
managed to preserve its natural enchanting
peace.
