Moray, Peru

Off the Beaten Path in Moray

The real Moray lives beyond the tourist trail. In the neighborhoods where locals actually spend their time, you'll find the authentic character, the unmarked restaurants, and the quiet corners that make a city worth knowing.

Mysterious Inca agricultural terraces carved into natural depressions in the Andes, creating concentric circles that served as an ancient crop laboratory.
