It is dominated by the Vilcabamba mountain range and the snowy peak in Salcantay. This small city is missed by many, but it has some interesting places for visitors to see. There is a large sample of Inca architectures and megalithic carved rocks. Chinchero lives up to the famous Peruvian fabric and also has a colorful market.

Pisaq.
The town of Pisac (Pisaq in the native Quechua language) lies 32 km, approx. 30 minutes from Cusco, in the Sacred Valley of the Incas right along the Río Vilcanota also known as the Urubamba River. The town itself hosts a famous market frequented by most visitors to the Sacred Valley on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday mornings, selling hand-painted ceramics and other handicrafts, as well as fruit and vegetables on Sundays. The other main attraction in Pisac is the stunning Pisac Archaeological Site which, perched atop a peak overlooking the town of Pisac stretch for 7km making for a nice morning of sightseeing with stunning views of the surrounding Andes Mountains.
Maras salt mines.
Maras Salt Mines is located along the slopes of the Qaqawiñay Mountain, at an altitude of 3,380 m in the Urubamba Valley, 46 km from Cusco, Peru. This salt mine is a complex network of approximately 3,000 salt mines, shallow pools that are filled with an underground hyper-saline source. It is believed that these salt mines were developed in the pre-Inca era (before 1430 AD) and today local families harvest them by hand during the dry season from May to November. The natural pink salt gets its beautiful shade from trace elements in the spring water, such as calcium, magnesium, silicon and potassium.

Not just a guide, they are family.
This past month I had the pleasure to go to Peru with a group of 12 friends to experience the beauty of Perus Sacred Valley. This was more than a tour, it was a journey of self-discovery that would not have been the same experience without the guidance of Puma and his incredible team Eddy, Edgar, Sergio, Rebi, Jemmi, willi, Reuben, marina, jose Luis, and the cooking team. Not only did they take us to some of the most breath taking and magical places, they took immaculate care, support, protection, and thoughtfulness into every step of the trip. I have immense love, and respect for the team at pumadventures for making this girl feel like a princess every step of the way. Thank you!
