Next stop was Ollantaytambo. Tremendous structure. Very high on a mountain, naturally. Huge terraces, helped support the weight of the huge stones which were hauled up there. Supposedly was a very holy place, with "houses" for a lot of priests and guards.
These first photos are looking across the valley to a mountain where the lesser priests lived. How they daily got up and down from there is my question. Some of the photos are using telephoto, others are normal shots, so you can see the height, etc. But all photos in this group are looking across.
