Moray is located in Urubamba province of Cuzco. Some researchers believe that this terraces were constructed in order to carry experiments for their agriculture. Suddenly we started to see some people coming into the structure with their drums, marching into the recessed center part of it. We learned that they were practicing for soon-to-come festival, "Inti Raymi (Sun Festival)" in that area. Too bad we could not stay longer to see their festival in their costumes!
More info below:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moray_%28Inca_ruin%29
Moray or Muray (in Quechua) is an archaeological site in Peru approximately 50 km (31 mi) northwest of Cuzco on a high plateau at about 3,500 m (11,500 ft) and just west of the village of Maras. The site contains unusual Inca ruins, mostly consisting of several enormous terraced circular depressions, the largest of which is approximately 30 m (98 ft) deep. As with many other Inca sites, it also has a sophisticated irrigation system.
The purpose of these depressions is uncertain, but their depth, design, and orientation with respect to wind and sun creates a temperature difference of as much as 15 °C (27 °F) between the top and the bottom. It is possible that this large temperature difference was used by the Inca to study the effects of different climatic conditions on crops. Speculation about the site has led to discussion about Moray as an Inca agricultural experiment station. Its microclimatic conditions and other significant characteristics led to the use of the site as a center for the ancient study of domestication, acclimatization, and hybridization of wild vegetable species that were modified or adapted for human consumption.

Moray, located in the Sacred Valley of Peru. The current theory is that the large concentric rings created a series of different microclimates. The Inca may have used these to test and adapt plant species.

We got to the ruins right before the sun. We sat and watched the sun rise over the Andes mountains and at this particular moment is when if finally rose above the mountain peaks and Machu Picchu was bathed in the early morning rays of the sun. It was beautiful.
