Ollantaytambo est construite sur des restes d´un village inca. Les rues sont toujours basees sur les plans inca d´il y a plusieurs siecles et le systeme hydraulique de la ville est d´origine et fonctionne encore. Ils sont doues ces Incas quand meme!
Pres d´Ollantaytambo, on a visite les ruines d´une cite Inca et les incroyables terrasses a plusieurs centaines de metres d´altitude.
On a aussi visite une fabrique locale artisanale de tissu et de differents produits issus de la laine de llama et d´alpaca.

Ollantaytambo is a town that is based on the Inca system of a few centuries ago. The streets and the town layout are the same that they were when the Incas built them. The water system also works perfectly. Very impressive.
Near Ollantaytambo, we also visited ruins of Inca sites and their incredibly high terraces. Amazing!
We also visited a local craft place where the people make fabric and different kind of products with llama and alpaca wool.
