First stop Pukara named after the first civilisation on the altiplano. The most famous Pukara-temple is on the way to La Paz in Bolivia, but I had no time to go there ... for the next time perhaps.
We visited the museum in Pukara ...
and further we went to the pass of the altiplano ...
... in front you see the sowy peaks who allimentates a little river that passes the secret valley (see later) and joins the Amazone ... then down to the valley direction Cusco ... a little stop in a workshop ...
... where are more cuy's ... the biggest one are ready to be eaten ...
and lama and alcapa ...
from left to right ... alpaca long hair (the best for wool) , alpaca short hair and lama
I like most the alpaca short hair ... nice face ...
there was also a baby-alpaca
then further to another inca temple on the way ...
the main temple consists of one high wall in the middle ...
and colums on either side to support the roof ...
nearby are storage-silo
and habitations for nobles, priests, ...
view of the main-temple from the habitations
and a view to see the size of the main temple
Afterward direction Cusco and stop at the sixtine chapel of the Andes
a glimps of the interiour ... photo not permitted inside ... gold everywhere ...
spanisch jesuites
... an inca toll passage ...
and hop to Cusco ...
view from the room in San Blas ...
Went for dinner in a gay-friendly restaurant ...
and to bed ...
