ORO DE LOS ANDES

A journey through Peruvian history. On this route we discover little visited corners of Peru. The intrepid traveller will be impressed by the beauty of the landscape and the imposing ruīns of 3 ancient cultures : the thousand years old magic of Chavin de Huantar, the Inca city of Huanuco Pampa and the Kingdom of the mysterious Yarowilcas.

It is a rich and beautiful collection of pictures I enjoyed very much. I will probably never visit Andes but what you posted here makes a splendid impression of that really miraculous place
