complex of Moray and the other to the salt mines of Maras, each with an
approximate distance of 4 km. Salineras: or "salt mines"consist of about 2000 small wells, which
were already exploited since Inca times as a means of economic exchange and

amphitheater, formed by four circular terraces which seem to disappear
