Sacred Valley

The Sacred Valley of the Incas, also known as the Urubamba Valley, is a valley in the Andes of Peru, north of the Inca capital of Cusco. It is a major tourist destination, known for its rich history, beautiful landscapes, and archaeological sites such as Machu Picchu, Pisac, and Ollantaytambo. The valley is fertile and was an important area for maize production in the Inca Empire. It is lower in elevation than Cusco, making it a great place for travelers to acclimatize before visiting other high-altitude areas. The valley has a mild climate, with temperatures ranging from 12°C to 24°C throughout the year. Visitors can explore the valley's many archaeological sites, hike, and experience the local culture and traditions
