"Market & ruins" a Pisac Travel Page by SirRichard

Pisac is a little village not far from Cuzco, that celebrates an attractive market on sunday mornings. Is a bit too touristy those mornings, as most of the tourists staying in Cuzco come here as a group activity, but if you come early in the morning, before most buses arrive, you will still enjoy the local flavour.

Local people from all the area come to this sunday market in Pisac, not only vendors and sellers but also folkloric groups that come here to play music and dance, so is a very colourful and interesting place.

But Pisac is also famous for some fabulous Inca ruins located on a hill on top of the village. Not as impressive as Machu Picchu but they can be a good intro if you are visiting those afterwards.
