Circular terraces of
Moray *
.
* The circular
terraces of Moray are located at about 20 miles northwest
of the city of Cuzco and 4 miles south of the town of
Urubamba (part
of the sacred valley of the Incas). The 3D view shown in this
section is
distorted due to the fact that the digital elevation model
used by Google
Earth has a pixel resolution of 90 meters which is too gross
since the
terraces are about 5-7 meters wide. For a better appreciation
of the
depth of these terraces see the section of
photos by David Rivera.
