Location: Ollantaytambo, Cuzco, Peru
An example of imressive stonework - this doorway is part of the temple at Ollantaytambo.
Ollantaytambo was the last refuge of the Incas in the Urubamba valley.
Although originally a temple, it became known by the invading Spaniards as a fortress after a relatively small number of Incas managed to repel an attack by Spanish cavalry.
