Ollantaytambo Archaeological Park...

#Overseas travel #Peru #Inca ruins Parque Arqueológico Ollantaytambo was an important military and religious center of the Inca Empire, and is known as the symbol of the last resistance of the Inca era. In 1536, Manuel Inca, a descendant of the Inca leader Pachacutec, resisted here during a battle with the Spanish conquistadors, but was defeated. The ruins are well preserved with the ancient Inca architectural techniques, and the large terraces and temples such as the Temple of the Sun show that they were used for religious ceremonies at the time. The structures here were built based on precise mathematical calculations and stone transport techniques, which prove the outstanding architectural skills of the Inca civilization. Ollantaytambo also served as an important fortress for the military defense of the Inca Empire, and it is a historically valuable site with relics related to the Inca's astronomical knowledge.
