In the middle of July I spent two weeks in Perù. It has been my first time in South America and I thought it was going to be an interesting journey in a country of great altitude; I was not prepared to live what I have seen there.
Peru is a country that holds many extremely significant surprises for the visitor. This explains why, for once, I will include a very wide selection of images from those I have taken.
I will group them mainly into categories, but only to try to identify common themes among the various locations as well.
Here is an active list you might find useful to jump to your favorite gallery:
- Machu Picchu Site
- Cruz del Condor
- Llamas, Alpaca and other animals
- Paracas, Pisco Beach and National Reserve of Islas Ballestas
- Ica Desert
- Arequipa
- Monasterio Santa Catalina
- Centro Arqueológico de Chinchero
- People of Perù
- Local Markets
- Laguna Sacacane
- Moray Site and Salineras de Maras
- Stray (and not) Dogs of Perù
- Vinicunca
- Titicaca Lake
- Churches of Perù
- Cuzco
- Sitio Arqueológico de Ollantaytambo
- Landscapes (misc)
