The Maras "salt mines" are 3000 or so small pools, each about 5 m², built on a slope of the "Qaqawiñay" mountain. The pools are irrigated or filled every 3 days during the dry season with salty water from a natural spring located above the pools. When the water evaporates the salt contained in it slowly solidifies. It is fascinating and the salt mines are still in use for salt today.

The Pachamanca is an ancient Peruvian cooking technique consisting of an earth-oven in which native ingredients such as different types of tubers, vegetables and meats are wrapped in local herbs and cooked underground using wood-fire heated stones. The farm also contains a little coffee roaster and a small distillery, where fascinating products are being developed using different Andean ingredients. You may want to have a look at it and perhaps try one or two sips of the Andean Whisky!
