MACHUPICCHU- CUZCO - PERU






I couldn’t help to post some pictures from my trip to Cuzco almost 9 years ago. I did it when I was single in company of my sister Sandra. Who will say that I will marry a couple years later with a godly man, have 3 beautiful children and move to another continent. But God is not done with us yet, it is possible that we move to another continent again (twice for me and first time for Frank).
Anyway, let me tell you a little bit about this place in Peru. Cuzco is the archaeological capital of the Americas and the continent’s oldest continuously inhabited city. Massive Inca-built stone walls line most of Cuzco’s central streets and form the foundations of colonial and modern buildings. The streets are often stepped, narrow and have beautiful sights.
Machu Picchu is South America’s best known and most spectacular archaeological site. During the busy dry-season months of June to September, you might see up to thousands visitors at the Lost City of the Incas, as it’s popularly known. Despite the huge tourist influx, the site manages to retain its air of grandeur and mystery and is considered a must-see for all visitors to Peru.
