Tambo Colorado, one of the best-preserved Inca ruins in coastal Peru Tambo Colorado, originally a fortified administrative centre before being adapted and used as an Incan coastal outpost TC 's position in the Pisco river valley was perfect for controlling people/produce along the ancient road down from the Andes Tambo Colorado. Some dwellings even retain traces of coloured paints
Tambo Colorado is a classic example of a preplanned adobe complex, everything in its place and nothing out of order Tambo Colorado. On the far side is the public plaza and the garrison and messenger's quarters Tambo Colorado: the way it was in Incan times... John exploring 'la avenida misteriosa de picaduras de viruelas'
The mysterious' avenue of smallpox spots' stretches along the Andes for many kilometres The holes are manmade but their purpose is still unknown Mario Vildosola examining the 'picaduras de viruela' The line of holes runs straight through the coastal desert and up/down the Andean foothills

G'day John - absolutely spectacular photography of incredible and fascinating sites around Peru - how I would have loved to accompany you, even knowing you must have experienced some fairly unpleasant happenings during the period of time spent travelling to these truely wonderous places. A tour de force! Many thanks. Martin.

Hey, this pictures were great, what I loved is that you show places to which tourists don't normally go or don't know about. I'm one of those, actually. I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I'm going to Peru in January. As there's not much information on the internet (or anywhere, to be honest) about this places (Waiki, Waqra Pucara, etc.) I'd really appreciate it if you could contact me and give me some useful information. Thanks a lot in advance! My mail is andres10 at gmail.com and my name Andres.
