Pisaq Ruins, Market and Llamas Farm

For most of the week, the colonial town of Pisac is a quiet Andean village where locals relax in the plaza. Here there is a popular market for tourists where you can pick up an array of souvenirs. But the village comes alive on Sunday when the famous weekly market takes place. Pisac’s Sunday market attracts locals and international tourists alike.The main square gets crowded, especially after the mass, which is celebrated in Quechua.

The Pisac Archaeological Site above the village is the largest fortress city of the Incas and one of the largest of ancient America. Pisac is known for its agricultural terracing, which was an essential part of Incan survival. In the vertical world of the Andes, flat agricultural land is scarce and landslides are a constant threat.  The Incas solved both these problems by building agricultural terraces.  Entire hillsides were tamed by great flights of terraces that followed contours like the layers of an architect’s model.
