O atrakciji

Brze činjenice: Granaries are perched roughly 100 meters above the town, offering a bird's eye view over the Urubamba River valley. Over 200 stone storage structures were designed to keep crops dry and safe from wildlife with precise ventilation systems.

Istaknuto: Perched on rocky cliffs, the granaries' trapezoidal stones fit perfectly without mortar, showcasing an ancient engineering marvel. The site channels mountain winds to preserve its contents, a clever technique locals used to store maize and potatoes.
