day 14 - Cusco - Urubamba

Have visited 4 museums in Cusco :
Museo de Arte Contemporaneo
Some nice work ... a few works made completely of bones ... a cathedral

Don Quichote

and a few paintings ...


passed the sunny streets to the next  museum ...

Museo Inka with some interesting objects ...

even some metal bracelets ...

then to Museo de Arte Precolombino with a magnificant display ... a few hundred objects from different cultures ...










...i have got other pictures, but can not display them all ... each object in this museum is an art-work ...
And on the lower level 3 rooms with displays of shell, silver and gold ...
These three are from shells





some silver nose-plugs ...

and silver ear-plugs


and a golden crown ...

then to Museo del Sitio del Qoricancha which was not realy interesting ...
Qoricancha is one of the most important Inca-buiding in Cusco ... and a church was build on it ...




and then went for the bus to Urubamba (3NS  is less then 1 Euro for 80 km) ...



Arrived in Urubamba all save and well found a cheap hostel (40 ns = 10euro)
I changed a bit my program ... else I wouldn't have enough time to visit all I wanted ...
