PMR106K-27 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. Inca corn granaries carved out of the cliff (right) and "the face" (left). The grain was here secure against pests, protected from the weather, and well ventillated. Keywords: High Andes, Cuzco, Qosqo, Inca architecture, Urubamba Valley, Ullantaytampu
