Great pictures Stuart, always a pleasure to visit Ollantaytambo.

A good reason to stay in Ollantaytambo for a night is that it’s the easiest place to take the train to Machu Picchu, you don’t have to wake up at 4:00 am to take the early train from Cusco.

After reading this and viewing your photos I really regret not exploring more of the town. When I visited, we focused more on the ruin site and a restaurant on the main road. Oh well, another excuse to revisit Peru.

Muy buen artículo, ni siquiera cuando estuve de paso por esta ciudad tan encantadora pude obtener tanta información. La única vez que visité Ollantaytambo realizaba un recorrido en motocross, una experiencia igual de inolvidable. Espero poder ir nuevamente para recorrer con más detenimiento cada belleza que nos ofrece la región de Cuzco.
Me encantaron sus fotos!
