Summaryedit
Description |
Español: Vista general de las salineras de Maras, Perú. La sal se explota en Maras desde tiempos del Imperio Inca y sigue en funcionamiento con 3.000 pozos de 5 square metres (54 sq ft) cada uno. El sitio está rodeado de montanas salinas, y son las aguas subterráneas de las mismas las que transportan la sal hasta los pozos, que sale a la superficie gracias a la evaporación debido a la exposición de los pozos al sol. Cada mes se alcanzan 10 centimetres (3.9 in) de sal que es entonces empaquetada en sacos para su posterior distribución.
English: General view of the salineras (salt evaporation ponds) in Maras, Peru. The salt is obtained in Maras since the Inca Empire times and the site is currently composed of around 3.000 ponds of 5 square metres (54 sq ft) each. As the location is surrounded by salty mountains, subterrean water deposits the salty wather in the ponds and the water evaporates due to the exposure to the sun. After aprox. 1 month the level of salt reaches 10 centimetres (3.9 in) and is removed in sacks.
Українська: Соляні пруди біля міста Марас, Перу. Сіль почала збиратись ще за часів інків і зараз тут є приблизно 3 тисячі прудів, кожен в середньому по 5 квадратних метрів площею. Оскільки це місце оточене солоними горами, грунтові води приносять сіль в ставки, після чого вода випаровується. Кожного місяця шар солі потовщується на 10 сантиметрів. Після цього його знімають і упаковують в мішки для подальшого продажу.

O local é rodeado de montanhas salinas, e são as águas subterrâneas das mesmas que transportam o sal até os poços. A crosta de sal, que permanece após a evaporação da água ao final de um mês, é então recolhida em sacos após atingir uma espessura de aproximadamente 10 centímetros.
