Pisac: This site consists of clusters of archaeological remains, including terraces, aqueducts, roads associated with walls and gateways, channeled waterways, cemeteries, and bridges.

Ollantaytambo: It was built during the Inca period as a fortified area that includes a temple, terraces, and an urban sector. Two sectors can be distinguished: one called “Araqama Ayllu,” an area linked to worship and religion; and the second, “Qosqo Ayllu,” a residential area.

Chinchero: In the workshops of the artisan associations, the entire weaving process is demonstrated daily, from washing the wool to the final product. Visitors can witness the spinning, dyeing, and weaving techniques still practiced by the people of Chinchero. Currently, Chinchero textiles are highly recognized for their dedication to their production and for maintaining the Inca textile tradition as their foundation.
