The Sacred Valley of the Incas was the center of the vast Incan Empire. This fertile land with an excellent climate has been a major agricultural region for thousands of years. The extensive ruins stretch from the villages of Pisac to Ollantaytambo, in the north end of the narrow valley, the citadel of Machu Picchu is located. The Urubamba and the Vilcanota River adore the beautiful landscape of the Sacred Valley, which is also home to the Quechuan descendants who still maintain the same customs and rites of their ancestors.
