Shopping Tour in Cusco Sacred Valley
The best shopping in Cusco Sacred Valley isn't in the malls — it's on the streets. From vintage stores to artisan workshops, spots like Pisac ruins and market are scattered through neighborhoods that reward the curious walker. Wander further and you'll stumble on Urubamba Brewery — the kind of find you can't replicate online.
The Sacred Valley (Valle Sagrado) was the agricultural heartland of the Inca Empire, and walking through its towns and ruins reveals the sophistication of this ancient civilization. Ollantaytambo, at the valley's western end, preserves massive Inca temple terraces and one of the only places where the Spanish were defeated in battle. The town below the ruins retains its original Inca street plan, making it one of the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in the Americas. Pisac combines spectacular hilltop ruins with one of the best markets in Peru, held in the town's colonial plaza. Moray features mysterious concentric circular terraces that the Incas may have used as an agricultural laboratory. Chinchero, known as the birthplace of the rainbow, offers traditional Quechua textile demonstrations. The valley sits at a lower elevation than Cusco, making it a more comfortable place to acclimatize before ascending to Machu Picchu.
