Maras stopover

After Moray, we made a brief stopover at the town of Maras. This is the nearest village to the Inca Salt fields.
Here,we learnt that there are 3 types of salts that are extracted from the salt fields in the Salineras. The lowest is brownish and has earth mixed in it. This is for medicinal usage and is added to the bath for better blood circulation and also aids in other cures.
The pink salt is the next one and is a bit less course. This one is used for cooking and is good for meats and vegetables.
The top layer is the finest and is called white salt or flour of salt. This is used for salads.Okumaya devam et
