Ollytaytambo

Visiting our guide's (Alan) town Ollytaytambo.  This is the only true remaining Inca city as can be seen by the Inca walls and Inca water feature in the pcture below.
Notice the face in the center of the photo?  Storage facilities are to the right and left of the face.

 Here are the terraces of Ollytaytambo.  Very suitable for growing crops.
Kevin and I getting ready to climb the terraces.


View of the Sacred Valley from half way up the terraces.

Close to the top of the terraces.  Notice the Inca walls.

 View into the valley beyond the terraces.
 Imrpressive walls.
 Incredible joints in the walls along with an etching of half the Southern Cross.

A princess bath.  Notice the flow of water over the stone.
