PMR655-09 Peru, Cusco, Ollantaytambo: an Inca town (2792 metres a.s.l.) built by Pachacuti in the 15th century, which largely retains intact the original layout of roads and houses. Many houses are today occupied by descendants of the Incas. The Araqhama quarter of the Inca town, with its square, Manyaraki, and original Inca buildings. Note the grain storage chambers built into the cliff at the rear, and the "face" to their left. Keywords: High Andes, Ullantaytampu, Urubamba Valley, Inca architecture, Qosqo, Cuzco
